[quote=jsmith123]I think when pediatricians say to start solids at 6 months, they should also say: "but like any other milestone, your child might not be ready for a couple more month."  There really is a wide range of normal here.  And interest at 6 months, but not ability, is totally normal.

It sounds like she'll be a good candidate for BLW.  Let her grab and chew whatever is on your plate.  She'll spit and gag, and every time she does that, her body is learning a little bit.

One other thing you might want to try is these little feeders.  They let kids chew and get some flavor without being spoon fed or getting big chunks.  My kids liked these a lot at that age.
