Thicker Foods???

[lori22]

My baby is 7 mo. and has 8 teeth. How do I tell when she is ready for chunkier/thicker foods? She has only been eating food since 6 mo. I feed her 4 tbl. cereal and 2 cubes of fruit/veggies twice a day, and she nurses every 3 hrs. She loves biter biscuits, and makes a chewing motion when she eats, (sometimes I'm the teether!! Although I don't want to rush her. Any advice would be great.

Thanks
Lori

Hi Lori22,
I would start giving her the veggies with a few lumps left in it and see how she does, you could also try some toast and crackers, whole foods has some good wheatines.Hope this helps!!! :)

Hi, why don't you try cottage cheese or baked beans, just squish them up with a fork.
