8 month old doesn't want to spoon fed

Or eat much else aside from her bottles. She was never in love with spoon feeding but had a few things she liked and would eat maybe half of others. She has 2 teeth coming in now and its gotten worse. She pretty much refuses to be spoon fed. I have no problems letting her self feed but she will only really eat a bagel. Anything else she puts in her mouth she spits right out. Mostly she throws it on the floor and laugh as the dogs eat it. I truly feel she would be happier if I just gave her bottles, it just torture to feed her for the both of us. Chat Icon Any advice is welcomed. I was an EXTREMELY picky eater growing up and I don't want the same for her.

What about the pouches of purees that she can hold and squeeze on her own?

We mostly make DD's food too, but have those pouches for when we are on the go. Now she is older and mostly eats regular food, but she still LOVES those pouches.

If you want to keep making purees, maybe try putting it in a straw cup for her to just drink it. I make DD smoothies in a straw cup and she loves those.
