Finger Foods For 8 Month Old

My daughter just turned 8 months old, and she is grabbing at food and trying to feed herself, so I want to give her some finger foods. But she was on reflux medicine from the time she was 2 months old, has a couple of foods that she can't eat thus far, so we are very leary to give her gluten right now. It seems all of the finger foods are "whole grain goodness." :o We found one gluten free finger food, but it was banana based. She's only had banana a couple of times, but always gags on it and spits it up, so that was a no go...

What did you all give your children when they were in the finger food, learning to eat stage? You'd think I would know, but I had no clue about celiac when my son was this age!!!

Thanks :)

My daughter who is 12 months old, loves the mum-mum rice crackers. She started eating them around 7-8 months old. A

We also used a lot of rice rusks, and Kix-tons of Kix!

What are those? Are they similar to rice cakes?

      Thank you for the links to the articles.  Interesting reading. I'll be telling my brother in law because he has a lot of pain

      Oats naturally contain a protein called avenin, which is similar to the gluten proteins found in wheat, barley, and rye. While avenin is generally considered safe for most people with celiac disease, some individuals, around 5-10% of celiacs, may also have sensitivity to avenin, leading to symptoms similar to gluten exposure. You may fall into this category, and eliminating them is the best way to figure this out. Some people substitute gluten-free quinoa flakes for oats if they want a hot cereal substitute. If you are interested in summaries of scientific publications on the topic of oats and celiac disease, we have an entire category dedicated to it which is here: https://www.celiac.com/celiac-disease/oats-and-celiac-disease-are-they-gluten-free/
