I was just changing Zuri's diaper and I noticed that there are lots of pieces of undigested carrots in his poop. (Since I just mash up whatever we are eating, I can't really get it super smooth.) Is this bad? Do you think I should forgo carrots b/c it's just empty calories basically filling up his tummy and coming out without being absorbed by his body? Or do you think if I could somehow get them smoother, his body would digest them better? Or possibly lots of food isn't digested by his body but just comes out smoother and I can't tell (like pumpkin)?

Just wondering! Thanks!

IMO I would keep feeding him what you are, maybe mashing them a little more just because. They are all for the most part starting on tablefood here and there and if not, they will be soon. If you think about it, there are lots of foods that we as adults don't even digest completely. I mean I might be weird, but I don't see anything abnormal here, but then again, this is just my opinion though.
