Depends: Does s/he gag? Does s/he immediately push the food out? I'd discuss it with your pediatrician at the 12 month checkup. Your child could have issues with texture. Try different textures of foods-crackers, cheese, soft fruit, etc. And let your doctor know what your child does with the different textures.

Try to lomit btls: I would make sure the kid is brought to the table and sits while others eat.Make sure your meal plan includes something you can mash up and offer him.Over time he will want to sample some of what others eat. I'd continue formula in a sippy cup and only offer water in bottles to protect his teeth.When he is taking one or two solids a day a switch to milk is ok but limit to 24 oz/d.
