Add a little bit of salt, not a lot but enough to “season” the food that way she’s not eating bland food, I did that and my babygirl will eat pretty much anything

Are they purees or no? We had that problem with purées until I started heating them up and seasoning them 😅

If purées maybe mix fruit with vegetables? Start with more fruit and then slowly switch to more vegetables? If not purées are the vegetables cooked or no? Because my baby loves chewing on uncooked zucchini 😂

Dr. Google said garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and pepper are good for savory so we use that!

@Kelsy Richards yeah theyre purees, i havent done much of actual solids cause im so afraid of her choking 😅 but i will try that!

@Makenna i havent done many actual solids cause im so afraid of choking 😅 but i will try that too!

@Jaylean girl same 😂 my 7 month old wants to eat everything but it makes me so nervous. We’re slowly working our way to different textures! I mix the purées w rice or grains to get them thick and she’s had the tether crackers and baby Cheetos and hasn’t choked 😂

@Jaylean same here! He gags even with purées so I’m not giving my son actual solids yet lol he’s gonna be 7 months this month

Do you puree your own food by chance. We haven’t tried much green veggies yet but my son loves butternut squash, sweet potatoes, potatoes, yams, and is sorta weird about peas but I think that is because of the texture since we didn’t puree them like we should’ve. He never liked the baby food at the stores I think he just like the way the fresh food tastes

@Janessa we started with homemade but money is super tight and WIC gives us baby food so we just do store bought now. shes never liked either doesnt matter where its from, if its a veggie its a no lol

I heat mine up slightly with a little olive oil, pepper, and garlic powder

They say it’s natural for them to gag a bit at first. I’m lucky my daughter loves every kind of food I’ve given her. At first she absolutely hated eggs but now she eats them np

@Vanessa i get its normal for them to gag but she doesnt gag with anything but green veggies. she just absolutely despises them no matter how many times i give it to her. like theyre so disgusting she pukes

@Jaylean ohh ok. Ya my daughter was like that with egg at first but I kept giving it to her so now she’s able to eat it without any problems.
