Baby not swallowing???

Question

Hello all! I'm new on this group and I'm not sure if somebody has been in this situation... my daughter is 7 months old and never tried purées just BLW foods since 6 months. Still breastfeeding and not worried but lately she has started to bite bigger pieces and chewing but not swallowing... is this normal? Thanks!

Answer

Do you see any bits of food in the poop? For example, if you feed her carrots, do you not see any red specks?

Answer

I think so. My LO is seven months and we've been doing BLW for a month now. Most of the food ends up all over him, in his lap, or on the floor. He will mash food in his mouth and then a lot of the time it all falls out. I think there is only a problem if they are still pushing it out with their tongue, but otherwise it is part of them exploring and getting accustomed to different tastes and textures. Some days he actually swallows more than others.
