How did you introduce table foods to your baby?
Q. My 11 month old baby wont eat table foods. She seems to eat baby food from the jar without too many problems. But won't take table food. I've tried bananna, potatoes, chicken, and scrambeled eggs. Every time she does this whole drama gagging act and spits it out. The food is small enough for her to mash and swallow but she wont eat it. I'm not sure what to do. I don't want to compare her to others but it seems like she is behind other babies her age as far as eating goes.

A. First, ask her doctor about it at her 1-year check-up. I hate that answer, but there could be something going on where she's really having trouble with it. If you have a Handy-Cam or something where you can easily take video to show the doctor, do that. What you might want to try in the meantime is to give her finger food. Let her feed herself instead of you feeding her. Cheerios. Small pieces of fruit (watermelon is great). Banana slice quarters. If she can put it in her mouth herself, it might help. You can also try letting her use her own spoon. My son has never been a fan of potatoes. Never cared for mashed potatoes as a baby either. Chicken might be a little tough to chew. My son didn't like scrambled eggs for a long time either.… [cont.]
