My ten month old son gags and spits out everything we try to feed him. Whenever he sees a spoon coming at him he locks his jaw and refused to open his mouth. We have tried all the different baby foods, cooked vegetables, and all the fruits. The only thing he will kinda open his mouth for is cherrios & veggie puffs but will only eat a couple. He is breastfed and eats every three hours and is gaining weight , I just remember starting to feed my daughter some table foods at this age and her loving them. Anyone have the same problem and what are you doing about it?

I've never personally had the problem, but a good friend has. Her daughter ONLY breastfed for the first year. So long as baby is healthy - no big deal.
I'd suggest only offering her foods that she can pick up and feed to herself. Avoid spoon feeding if possible. It might be a sign that her little body just isn't ready. She could be avoiding some allergy that you're not even aware of yet.
And do NOT listen to anyone telling you to NOT breastfeed or that you're doing it too much. That is the healthiest food for her the first year and beyond!!!

i take advantage of wellbeing moist and dry for my kittens as nicely. I feed the moist nutrition two times an afternoon - in the morning and in the night. Dry nutrition is saved out all day. I make effective the moist nutrition is heat. I upload warm water from the faucet and combine it around and have a look at it with my finger to make effective it is not too warm. they won't consume chilly moist nutrition rapidly from the refrigerator. i spotted too that including the water decreased their solid urine scent to not super in any respect and their vet reported me that including the water reduces their probabilities of having a urinary tract an infection distinctly because of the fact that they are adult males. I have been given the belief from an episode of it is Me or the dogs. The dogs does not consume the moist nutrition. Victoria, the instructor, reported to warmth the nutrition as much as launch the heady scent of the nutrition and make it tastier. It labored for the dogs and it labored for my kittens.

Wean him off the breast milk first...then introduce baby foods. It may take a while for him to adjust, but oddly enough the combination of meats and applesauce stirred together seems to be a favorite
