8 month old feeding

Me

What are you feeding your babies? I breastfeed my baby, give him puréed fruits vegetables and meat, yogurt. I tried giving him a piece of baby puff, a tiny bit of our mashed potatoes, and he chokes on it... even the tiniest pieces make him choke... is it normal at that age? I don’t remember when my almost 3 year old started eating pieces of food... she was choking on everything for the longest time, and when people were giving pieces of apples to their children, I still puréed everything for mine cuz she was choking 🙄
