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 sholid to solid diet with increasing consistency and you have to progress by 20% to 30% every few weeks. it is a learnidng process 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. U We’ll have to teach your child how you are doing the food Just show your mouth gestures whenever you are eating something just by looking at you gradually only your child is going to pick up because if your child has its teeth then it’s important for your child to have proper food
