A. Hello mom this is the correct age and time to get the child into the habit of chewing and avoid giving mashed foods otherwise later it would get much more difficult for them . Give roti and dip it in dal or soup , give some finger foods like cut fruits etc

Mom of a 1 yr old girl

Q. My baby girl will be one year old next month, but she doesn't have parantha or roti even in mashed form. She gags and, at times, pukes it out. She is having formula milk, mashed veg khichdi, mashed veg Dalia, mashed fruits, and cerelac only. (Milk, breakfast, snack, lunch, snack, dinner followed by milk 4-5 times in night) On one hand, no one at home let me try parantha or roti again, and on the 5 say I am giving g her less food. I feel like a harsh mom who dnt want to overfeed the child. what to do? am I wrong anywhere?
