On to real food!!

This past week, I've been giving Jared white american cheese, YoBaby Yogurt and pastina mixed into his meats, fruits & veggies to get him used to textured foods. He's been doing a great job...no gagging at all.

What are some other things I can feed him at 8 months? The doctor didn't give me any other ideas than the ones above.

TIA!!

Connor is a little bit older but eats eggs, all kinds of pasta, pancakes, I even give him little bits of chicken and he loves all of it.

I give Alex munster and swiss cheese and banannas. Gerber puffs are really great because they disslove pretty quickly. You could also try mashed potatoes.

ETA - Alex is so interested in our food now. I give him just about everything to try. Cut into small pieces. My dr said no eggs until 1 year but I think that is a bit old, but I am waiting.

I have "What to Expect the first Year" and it has a whole thing written out in the 8th month. If you don't have the book let me know and I'll type it out for you. There are a lot of suggestions.
