A. Hello mom You will continue giving the mashed food to your baby then baby will never start taking proper meals. And now your baby is more than two years old so you should definitely stop giving in such form. Give it normally then only baby will make a habit of chewing the food. In starting baby will take time but within a time these things get normal by its own
