My 9 month old has been eating solids now for quite awhile. She has been eating finger foods for about 2 months, mostly cheerios. Lately I started introducing some variety but she seems to choke and gag quite a bit. So I usually end up freezing whatever I made or mashing it up for another time. Tonight for example I made potato fries sprinkled with cinnamon and a dash of brown sugar. She liked them but she choked and threw up so that was the end of that. She never chokes on cheerios so I just assume she is used to them and the fact that they basically dissolve in her mouth. She can eat mashed potatoes no problem but because the skin was a little crispy (not too much) she couldn't quite "chew" them up. She only has 2 bottom teeth so far. So should I wait to give her anything new until she has more teeth or just keep trying so she gets the hang of it.
