A. it is very common that during the initial one or two years the child might take liquid or semi solid diet. but you can always gradually shift to semi solid to solid diet with increasing consistency and yodu have to progress by 20% to 30% every few weeks. it is a learning prxocess of swallowing as well as she is going by the child so do not worry and continue your efforts. the child will learn the chewing process gradually because the child is always copying people around them

A. hello you should sit along with your child and teach your child to chew food and offer finger food which can be helpful and also slowly try changing the consistency day by day so the baby will get used to it which should be better and also safe too
