what solid solids are we feeding baby?

As far as the crawling part goes, I’ve read some say crawling because apparently at that stage they’re simultaneously working on developing their jaw strength more while crawling. As far as other foods, you should check out the “Solid Starts” app if you haven’t yet. It has basically every individual food you can think of with serving sizes and suggestions based on age
I have a good recommendation for you. For this stage you can steam different kinds of veggies for him and a good rule of thumb is that if you can easily squish it between your fingertips, than he should be able to eat it just fine. Try some soft avocado, bananas, peaches as well
Avocado, banana, ground meat, toast, raspberries, steamed carrots, zucchini, eggs, mini pancakes, spaghetti cut up in small pieces. My baby is just about 9 months old, doesn’t have teeth and she can eat all of these things. She also eats the teething crackers and things you mentioned. You got this!
@Stephanie yes!! i’ve given him like really good of just things i have on my plate,, he does have two bottom teeth and is able to do the chewing motion and he hates meat with all his being lol
My baby isn’t crawling and I feed her just about anything at this point. Eggs, whole milk yogurt, homemade purée, mashed potatoes, small pieces of breads, fruits, veggies, anything off my plate. She just loves to eat 🤣 I also love the solid starts app! Shows all sorts of foods and how to prepare them based off age and development!!
I think they say crawling to make sure your child can sit up on their own and are more likely to be able to handle solid foods. I have my daughter on homemade purees, crackers, toast, and fruit teethers:) she loves them too!
