So it seems Marisa (10 months tomorrow!) will only eat "dry" finger foods. She does REALLY well with Puffs, Cheerios, graham crackers, arrowroot cookies, etc. She'll also eat wheat bread (toasted or not) and chicken nuggets, although she'll only take a few pieces of that whereas the crackers, etc she'd eat a ton of.
But she won't even touch anything soft of wet - no pasta, cooked veggies, fruits, etc. I've tried soft cooked pasta in different shapes, steamed carrots, steamed green beans, fruit cubes, etc - she gets freaked out and upset and won't touch it and won't let me give it to her either. Any ideas? Just keep putting some on her plate and see if she'll eventually try?
Her meals are still mostly purees but she's starting to want to self feed more and more so I'm trying to stay ahead of the game and find healthy finger foods for her. She does like these veggie chips from whole foods but they are too hard for her to chew still - with her first two teeth still only halfway through.
