    what did you give him? did you do savoury and sweet when jars? i dont think youll need to give jars forever you just maybe need to try mixig different flavours

    yeah he had sav and sweet with jars i gave him sweet potatoe and pork both of which hes had before, hes not usually fussy! xxx

    do you think giving him one flavour per meal would help rather than mixing them? xx

    when i did sweet potao i mixed it with some cinnamon and baby milk, i thought it was yuck but he couldnt get enough, you could try mixing it. Also like mumto2 says you could mix something like baby rice with a fruit puree or something. although he may have had them before i doubt jar food has the same flavour so it will just be adjustment

    try one flavour if he hates it try mixing no harm done in just trying

    Rhys is the opposite he won't eat jars. Try mixing some homemade with the jars as it may be the texture he doesn't like, don't know bout urs but my own purees are nowhere near as smooth as jars. May get him used to it and just add less jar each time.

    yes mine didnt look as smooth as jars. ill persevere and see what happens xxx

    you can get them runnier and smoother just by adding a bit of cooled boiled water
