I went to a friend's for lunch today. I took my 13mo DD a cream cheese sandwich (as i wasn't sure what they were cooking) and when I saw my friend's 10mo eyeing it up I said 'she can have some if she likes' and was promptly told there is no way the little girl could eat it as she would choke. This led to a discussion about what she does eat and I was told that at 10mo this little girl has only ever had vegetable purées with formula milk mixed in. Apparently they mixed some fish in once and she didn't like it.
I was quite shocked by this. I did BLW with DD and I'm lucky she is a good eater for the most part. Within my group of friends those who did purées introduced finger foods fairly early and all their children were eating protein and dairy long before 10mo.
I know it's none of my business and it's her DD so her choice but it can't be right to just have veg purée at this age can it?
