DS is 6.5 months in corrected age. He has been on solids for a month or so. Whilst teething, he went off his solids & is still just not interested in being spoon fed. However, he's happy to eat if he's feeding himself. I give him banana, watermelon, cucumber & anything else I can give in sticks. I would love to do BLS but

.... I FREAK out at the gagging.

Is there something I am not doing right?

Is there better foods to start him on?

How long will he gag for?

How did you introduce BLS?

Any tips whatsoever would be appreciated.
