10months and mashing?

[princess_bump]

i'm sure this is ok, but just wanted to see what everyone else's LO's do/what you do?

so maddi is fab with lumps, she has really big lumps of pasta etc and loves them, so when i now make her veggies, like this morning (carrots and butternut squash to freeze) i just mashed it up, instead of blending, so she has lumpier food!

is this correct?

thanks guys

Definately! I think the quicker you get to solid/lumps the less likely they are to start 'rejecting' them IYKWIM. I give Hebe a mixture of what we eat with mushed a bit or just straight as it is in her hands, finger foods, and ready made - the ready made stuff I used is the Plum 10 months + so its nice a textured/lumpy

Yeah def! Casen LOVED food and by 10mo was completely off "baby" food and just ate things diced up, not even mashed
