Hello all. My little one is 6 1/2 months old. He has been eating solids since about 4 months old. He eats very well. Recently he began eating the Gerber fruit puffs, I call them stars because of their shape. He loves them and will actually move them to the side of his mouth and chew them. Then I began offering him the Gerber Graduates fruit and veggie pieces. He chews them fine but he will not swallow them. I don't understand why not. He is chewing them to a consistancy that is similar to his solids so I don't know why he won't swallow these. I have tried adding a small piece to his spoonfull of solids and he does better at swallowing them. Is this normal? Am I pushing him? Is he not ready yet? Any suggestions?
Thanks.
