A. hi mam, you should increase food consistency gradually. for that , initially ,you should offer food with liquid consistency ,after few days you can start offering food in puree or well mashed form and then so on. or try to make your child sit to take meal with whole family because children learn more from imitating their parents. offer small bites .
