When are you/did you stop feeding baby purées?

Question

Wasn't too sure how to go about this poll I was just curious what other mommas are doing as far as starting baby on table Foods rather than purées ? My son is 8 months and im thinking of starting to give him table Foods and stop purées entirely as he does really good when I give him some. He pretty much has his pincer grasp down so I think it may be a good time to transition? Thoughts? Advice? FTM here.

Answer

I plan to completely stop purée food when he's a year. He does good with table food and it's nice that we can all eat at the same time. I mostly just use the purée food when I'm on the go

Answer

My daughter is 7 months and still has mostly soft or puréed foods. I was all for BLW but it just doesn't work for my daughter. She has the pincher grasp and all the BLW requirements down, she just doesn't do well with finger foods. She chokes constantly and gags and vomits. So we are sticking to purées and occasionally reintroducing finger foods to see how she goes.

Answer

My suggestion is BWL. My daughter is 16 months and still tries to swallow sometimes before she chews enough. I do not think puréed food is beneficial at all. 
I will be BWL with this baby.

Answer

Every baby is different. My son refused table foods. He was still eating my homemade purées at 15 months. I used vegetables, meat and either potatoes or pasta so he was getting a well rounded meal just not in whole form. Everything was seasoned as well.

Answer

We did a mix of BLW and purées. My son is almost a year and table food is his primary source of food but I still offer purees. He likes to wash down his table food with a pouch and it's nice when he's feeling a little picky and doesn't want what I'm offering on his plate. And I'm not going to say no to extra veggies in his diet. He doesn't want one every meal anymore, probably like every other day now.

Answer

8 months is a good age to start! I started BLW around then :)
I wanted my son to get the hang of swallowing before he started BLW
