what about juice??? Once you have given him what he usually eats if hes still feelin hungry fill him up with juice? I did that with Elinor when she went through a phase like that and it seemed to work

oh sam have you tried baby pasta? with a little cheese, maddi loves this! if not, if he likes finger foods maybe go with that, like a sandwich and some veggie sticks! i would say don't worry and go with what he likes honey xxx

I have the same problem. I'm trying to get my LO to eat my home cooked food. I had just managed to get him eating some pureed casseroles and then he got a cold and ear infection and if we tried to feed him home made stuff he puked so we went back to the jars. Now that he is better we have started trying to feed him his favourite veggies and are struggling with that. He was gagging on pureed carrots last night.

The one thing different between the jars and the homemade food is that we warm the homemade food up slightly as its either been in the fridge or the freezer. With the jars we give them to him at room temp. Tonight we are going to try warm his jars up and see if that is maybe the problem.

I can't really offer any advice as I myself don't know what else to do. I can't afford to keep feeding jars and wasting home cooked food.

Also with finger foods, he will happily eat sandwiches, biscuits etc but not veg or fruit sticks. think he just doesn't like the feeling of them in his hand.

see the packet foods are satisfying him enough its just that he cant eat thm forever lol. if i give him jars i usualy warm thm a little any way
thanks for the tip with baby pasta carly il have to try it....i mean hes not going hungry and he likes anything else i jus dont get why its actual home cooking lol xx

Maybe try mixing a little of the home cooking with the stuff he eats and then slowly changing the ratio until he is on the home cooked stuff.
