Finger food suggestions?

Question

So much daughter is 9 months old, and has no teeth yet. Like the bottom 2 have been coming in at the same time, for months now but have just not cut through the skin yet. But for so long they've been riiiight there. 
Anyways she seems to be getting bored with purees. She sits at the table with us while we eat and watches us, and seems interested. I do feed her yogurt, she likes mashed bananas too, and the little star shaped puff snacks and rice cookies. She can easily grasp foods with her thumb and index finger and feed herself. But what are some more foods I can give her when she has no teeth?? TIA!

Answer

Thank you everyone 😊😊

Answer

My baby is 9 months and eats whatever I’m eating but just changed up a bit so it’s safe like size. Some stuff I make just for him is peanut butter or avocado toast cut into strips, grilled cheese cut into strips, roasted broccoli, peas, green beans, butternut squash, sweet potatoes, scrambled eggs, bananas, shredded chicken, etc. But for the most part he just eats what we eat

Answer

My daughter is 9 months with no teeth and she still eats basically whatever we do. (Unless it’s like super crunchy and can’t dissolve easy)

Answer

Pretty much anything you eat is good (except the stuff like honey). You’d be surprised how strong their gums are without teeth.

Answer

Roasted veggies, fruits, noodles, avocados, beans almost anything you eat she can too if she’s got swallowing down. Which it sounds like she does since she’s eating purées. Mash up whatever you’re eating. My babies loved seeing me take food from my plate for them to eat. Most of her calories are still coming from breast milk/formula. As they say food under 1 is just for fun.

Answer

Bananas, avocados, butternut squash, toast (lightly toasted and cut into pieces), cut up grapes, applesauce (although thats still a puree), cooked carrots, peas. Most cooked veggies.

Answer

Babies don’t need teeth to chew and you don’t even chew with your front teeth. Their gums are strong enough to cut through a lot. 🙃
Avocado, eggs, soft pear, sweet potato, other soft or softened fruits and veggies. If you are on Facebook look up a group called “feeding littles” 👍🏼

Answer

Honestly we started baby led weaning. Any food can be safe if cut appropriately. My son was six months with no teeth. His first meal was steak, asparagus and roasted potatoes.
