My 9 month old hates baby food! I even make it myself and she refuses to have us feed her. She ate the pureed foods for about 3 months, then we were told we could start with Puffs, cheerios etc. Once she realized she could do it on her own, thats all she wants to do. She hasn't learned to crawl yet, she rolls to where she wants to go. Meal time has become so frustrating for everyone involved that I chose on my own to start feeding her tiny bits of cooked fruits and veggies. I cook them to the same tenderness as I would if I was going to puree it for her. She seems happy, but I wasnt told it was "okay" from the dr. yet. My "mom-instinct" tells me it's okay but I doubt sometimes. Do you feel it's okay that I have started doing this? How do I know if she is getting the nutrients she needs? What are some good finger foods for this age? THANKS SO MUCH FOR YOUR HELP!!
