How do we prepare porridge for a 9 month old? No teeth yet. Do we use the normal grains that we use to cook rice /porridge for ourselves? Or do we need to buy anything fanciful off the shelves meant for babies only? Do we need to puree porridge or sieve it etc? Gluey or watery? Anyone mixes brown rice grains into the porridge? Any brand in particular? Thanks!

Dun be surprise at the strength of their gums. They dun need teeth to eat most of the things. Have ur LO handle any more textured food? If yest... y can give in thicker texture. My LO skipped porridge n straight to rice at 7 mth when he was still toothless. End of 7 mth then pop 2 bottom teeth ...
