My 9 month old absolutely refuses, i mean, REFUSES to eat baby food... only wants to eat what is on my plate... not a problem for breakfast or dinner, but what do you give a baby that age for lunch and snacks??? I never had this problem with my older son... He has 8 teeth, so chewing isn't a problem.... advice, please?

MamaWolf...when my girls were little, they absolutely loved eating cereal for snacks, with no milk. Cheerios was their favorite.

They also liked apples - I would peel them and cut them into bite-sized pieces.

Mine were both eating regular food by this age, and I would just be sure to cut up whatever we were having in small pieces for them.

Cherrios is a great snack. My boys liked diced carrots and green beans. Make sure they are very tender. I would also dice up spam (yuck!) for them. They loved it! Sometimes I would over cook macaroni noodles for them. They were just the right size for them.

Spaghetti-O's and grilled cheese sandwiches were always a hit with my children when the were about that age. I gave crackers as a snack or a cut up banana even yogurt is a good snack. Best Of Luck
