Size of food pieces for 1 year old

And sorry, yes he does have teeth (7 of them) and he does chew, but the bigger bits end up either staying in his cheeks, or just coming out again (or he'll take it out with his hand and drop it).

Are you concerned about it, do you think it's worth seeing a paed? Sounds like he definitely has an aversion to swallowing larger pieces of food and I would be curious to find a if there is anything more to it. I am not sure what is considered normal but I don't really chop up anything for my DD unless I want to cool it down faster. For example, she had a banana for breakfast which I gave to her whole and a normal size spinach and feta muffin for morning tea

Oh wow! Sounds like your DD is eating everything you are DS is eating the same stuff, only broken down into tiny tiny pieces. Yeah I am a little concerned.... The dietician I went to see wrote a recommendation to the GP saying we should see a Paed so I'm seeing the GP again in 2 weeks. Will definitely be asking for the referral. Thanks for the reply Fuzzywuzzy

Yep Right now she's chomping on salada biscuits with homemade hommus on them.

A couple of the most valuable things I've learnt on the way are to follow your instincts and that every child is different. At least a paed will be able to do a thorough check up and give you some advice. Good luck!
