Please help with weaning

Hey guys, my 8.5 month old hardly eats. I’ve tried purées, baby led, pouches, homemade. He’s not bothered. He either spits it out or throws up after the tiniest mouthful (seems to hate texture) and won’t drink water. Still having lots of bottles obviously. Any advice much appreciated x

Hiya, no advice. Feel like I could've written this. Exactly the same for us. Its draining after a while. Following for any hints or tips too x

I would not worry! Good before one is more learning and milk remains the main food with all necessary nutrients. With throwing up, i would ask a gp. It can happen when food triggers it in the back of the mouth, for example when it is too big or gets stuck.

Most babies gag at the beginning. it doesn't matter what it is as they have to get used to texture, etc. I wouldn't stop. Let him play with food, give him the spoon of puree, etc. If he gags spist, that is OK, but give it again and see his reaction. If he's happy to take it after spitting, it just means he's learning to eat, and it's part of their process. Gaging is also part of it observe and see their reactions if all good continue. There is a good solid eats account on Instagram that explains everything
