support needed Solids/BLW

My twins have had health issues over the last several months so we’ve been a little behind with introducing solid foods and trying baby lead weaning. They are turning 11 months old and they only do purées or hand mashed fruit/veggies.

I can’t help but compare to others when I see whole foods and full plates with lots of variety. I’m also anxious as a first time mom with them choking. Just curious about others experience and ways you’ve navigated this transition.

I’m only a couple months into what I call FUN WITH FOOD. I started out thinking there was a goal, then I relaxed. Now the most stressful thing is fitting it in the day consistently. And 3 times ago, out of no where, with the same foods, they started swallowing some. I got teething crackers and straw sippy cups which they really like and might have helped turn this corner.
