that still feeds ds mashed vegetables...

he is 15 months...i know what most people are thinking. lol...but he LOVES his mashed veges and at least i know that he is getting something good...and actually eating it, instead of getting it all through his hair etc...yes he does help feed himself...i do give him diced/chopped veges to eat also. and he has lots of finger foods etc...he helps feed his yoghurt etc...

but am i the only one who still mashes veges for a 15 month old???

My ds is 19 months old, and most of the time he eats mash vegies..When he does eat boil or steam vegies, as I cut up his vegies for him and mix it all up, most of the time, it sort of become mash, lol..

my DS is 2.5 and will only eat mashed vegies he hates big chunks of vegetables, but he does eat stuff like spagetti and fried rice and other chunky stuff its just the vegies that have to be mashed..

like you said its good for him so let him eat it the way he wants it

I only recently stopped mashing vegies for my girls (2 + 3).
I stopped because the 3 yr old won't eat any veggies at all anymore and the 2 yr old will eat them whole now.
My 19yr old brother has crohns disease so he makes mashed veggies all the time still!

MOTH is 40 - he still occasionally asks for mashed vegies

Some nights I mash the vegies, mix ehh through them, lightly fry - I think it's like Bubble & Squeak - and we all eat them!

If he eats vegies - pfft - go for it
