It sounds like you DD is keen on just eating what you have, which is great and it actually Baby Led Solds (BLS), here is a link to Baby Led Solids Section a part of the forum all about it all about it, I would definitely follow the BLS path rather that making "special" food
Spooky after I typed the last post I went to the solids forum & saw the BLS, it was like a breath of fresh air reading that, it all fits! Have just tried DD on some mashed potato & greens with a cheesy bread stick & a spoon. Left her to it, she promptly stuck the bread stick in her gob loaded with mash & sucked it, then tried the spoon & in the end her hands were in the bowl (& head at 1 point but we can work on that 1 later!), wouldn't say that she actually ate anything but at least she was interested & knew what to do with it, will keep offering her food along these lines & see what happens. Thanks for the tip!
I am thrilled you found the tread and that it seems as though it is the path for you, a clsoe BB friend has a little boy who was low on the weight side and she followed the BLS path and he has done extremely well and has certainly caught up
