A. The most important thing is that your child should be having is chewing teeth if your child has them then you should teach your child how to chew the food properly before swallowing it and if your child doesn’t have that than a little bit of a semi solid texture is fine but you should try to feed gradually and teach your child how to have solid texture as wellWrite Your Answer Here
