I have a few more questions... I saw today @Mrs. Superhero posted on it, so maybe you can answer?

Did anyone's kids ever REJECT BLW? I started DS on purees (maybe that was my first mistake?) and less than a week later I tried giving him small pieces of food, and he looked at it and me like I was nuts. He wouldn't eat it. Instead he whined until I fed him purees.

I've tried not pureeing until smooth, leaving some texture and he hates it. He gags and spits out any part that isn't completely puree.

I keep trying because it would be nice for him to have some independence while eating, and he won't have it.

But he eats SO MUCH food, pureed food that is.
