At what point do I give up?

I just read to mix in stewed apples with everything...and gradually wean them off onto their veges...Who knows? Mmmmm yummo Stewed appleas and pumkin.... ha ha I had a friend whos little girl Lily hated veges so jo used to do one mouth of veges and shovel in one mouth of custard so it was this big emulsion of veges and custard YUCK!!!! She eventually came around...

I reckon..at their age you can just try them...if they dont want it ...forget about that dinner time and try it again....

Kobe didnt eat lumpy food till he was about 18months, he would gag on everything and throw up everywhere, and still does sometimes. He couldnt even eat a hot chip without gagging, also prefered the veges to fruit and is still not a huge fruit eater. Addison on the other hand will eat anything and everything. I just give her whatever kobe is having (normally cheerios, brocolli, carrots and bread roll or variation of) and she eats more than him. I think I wouldnt worry about it, well not force the issue anyway unless you really think its her being cheeky rather than not able to handle lumps. Also Kobe found the baby food with lumps the worst, if it was kind of runny he thought he could just swallow it, he couldnt move his tougue around the right way to shift the lumps if that makes sense.

Emma just introduce it perhaps a bit slower. Certain foods actually have a tendency to cause more gas and discomfort in certain babies and they will stay clear of those foods. I was just lucky that McKayla did that with anything and everything that is bad for you. (except for chocolate.)

Just perhaps make one teaspoon of veggies for her and mix it with some fruit, so her body can get use to digesting it.

I didnt like certain veggies growing up and we were never forcefed but had to eat one small bite of everything. And now I just love my veggies.

McKayla didnt eat mince or red meat at all and I did slowed down totally with it and mix one spoon with like 6 other spoon fulls of other food and now she will eat mince just by itself.

So dont really give up just go on a slower plan of attack.

Something that McKayla loved was to mix mash with some avo.
