[blparent] food question

[Helena Bachelder]

Hi,

Thank you very much. We did try bananas afew months ago, and he gagged on
them so much he brought up his dinner. We tried the Mum Mum crackers shortly
after that, and he did the same thing. We tried Cheerios, with  the same
result.

He is now able to finally eat the Mum Mum crackers and the Gerber puffs.

His gagging problem I believe is his age. Well at least that's what I've
been told by his doctor.

Thanks again.

Take care,
Helena

Go gurts, bananas, berries, cheedoh's, let me ask you a question, though
none of my business, is the choking problem medical or just his age?
Ritz crackers, they melt easily, what else have you tried?

Hi,
 
I have a question, and I'm hoping maybe someone on this list might be able
to help. My son who is almost  14 months has not really had many finger
foods due to a gagging problem he has. He has just learned a few weeks ago
to eat Mum-mum crackers (they are crackers that dissolve easily) and these
puffs that Gerber makes, that also dissolve easily. 
 
So my question is: What other things can I start to introduce him to, that
will be easy for him to eat, without him gagging on it? Any suggestions
would really be appreciated. Thank you in advance.
 
I know this isn't really blind related, so if you want to reply off list
that's fine. My email is  below.
 
Take care and God bless,
Helena
