Do you think when you start table foods determines if a child will be picky or not?
I have been trying to figure this one out since DD has been eating solids.
DS didn't really stop eating baby food until he was about a year. Even then he was still eating babyfood every once in a while. He is very picky and it amazes me sometimes that he even gains weight.
DD I started cereal at the same time but introducted more texture earlier and now at 9 months she eats tablefood for dinner everynight. She will eat everything in site. Even if she doesn't like it she will still eat it just takes a little longer.
So do you think their is a correlation with the two?

No, I don't know if there is a correlation.
I just think that toddlers go through that picky stage when they get older, regardless of what they used to eat. My DS (older one) used to eat EVERYTHING. he'd eat dirt if I gave it to him lol Then once he got older ( I would say around 2.5 YO), he just knew what he did/did not want. With DD, I see the same pattern. She is 20 months old and she is still eating everything in site like she's going to the electric chair. lol

I was going to write almost exactly the same thing, word for word!
