Mom of a 6 yr old boy4 years ago

Q.

Hi mommies/doctors, My Son is 1.8 years old and he is into family food and the food will be given in the mashed form. But he gags while eating. He is always having the sense of gagging while eating. After that he vomits everything out. Sometimes he eats well but still he gags. He is not into self feeding yet. I don't know how to stop him from gagging, Any suggestions or tips please?

A. just make sure to serve the right quantity and right texture of food. it should not be too hard or should have big bites. give proper gaps between the two meals. or while giving meal serve half at one time and serve half food after some time to avoid this gagging habit.
