Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 11 m old girl1 Year agoA. hi
as 16 months old still developing his oral motor skills and learning how to manage different texture, it's normal
although to encourage your child for this, provide a mix of smooth purees, mashed foods with some texture and soft, finger foods he can pick up and practice gumming
for example
you can offer ripe bananas slices or steamed veggies
