When should the consistency of foods be changed from soft to lumpy to solid?

Foods that have some lumps can be introduced at about eight months, at this age the baby has developed enough tongue mobility to enable them to chew and swallow these foods. From nine to twelve months babies can start to hold finger foods, and have the manual skills to feed themselves and to drink from a cup. There is a critical window for introducing lumpy and then solid foods. If they are not introduced at this age it may increase the risk of feeding difficulties later on.
