[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think there's much evidence to support it. Honestly I'd feed intuitively and follow your kid's lead. We started with purees but our baby pretty quickly decided he hated them, so we moved to mashed food, soft foods, then foods that required more chewing and so on, as he seemed ready. If you start slow and watch your kid closely to see how they're handling food, it kind of clicks. I was really paranoid at first but it worked out fine--our kid is 2.5 and eats pretty much anything and he's pretty good at figure out how to eat certain foods, what's too big a bite, etc. I think too many parents overthink it.[/quote] My kid is also 2.5 and will say funny things like “that’s too big for my teeth”. She also tells me to eat nuts with my “big sharp teeth”. It’s because I remind her to chew nuts (pieces, not whole) with her big back teeth, as Solid Starts recommends. [/quote]
