Is anyone else just feeling exhausted and guilty they arent doing enough with solids? All my baby does is play in it so I'm constantly cleaning him up just to try to get him to actually swallow one bite. I'm constantly trying to come up with something he likes when the only thing he wants to eat is the Gerber lil crunchies. He still hardly eats purees. He's always been this way. I'm just really over it. I feel like I'm failing. I dont want him to hate fruits and veggies forever.

Edit.

My baby is 9 months old and I offer more than fruits and veggies but he wont eat it. He will gag. Even if he did eat other things that's still not okay not to eat fruits and veggies. This isnt my first kid and I know he obviously will need solids for years he just wont eat it which is the point of this post. We tried baby led weaning at 6 months old and he would gag horribly. He would gag on purees. I offer him food constantly. Every flavor and texture. He doesnt swallow anything except for the stupid Gerber crunchies. I think it is likely that he has and has always had, a sensory issue.
