Hey I was just wondering if oatmeal was considered a pureed food? Any ideas?

Nope. It's a soft food. You can puree it though with a magic bullet or a blender. Oatmeal is too thick. You'd have to thin it out. The rule is, if you can drink it through a straw....

so cream of wheat would be pureed because it goes through a straw?

this is great news to hear...thanks for posting...I love love love oatmeal

Cream of wheat can be made too thick. pureed food is still supposed to be a liquid. So if it has chunks in it, take them out. Make sure it's thinned out with milk/water. My doctor called this the "Full Liquid" phase. It's a thicker liquid with more in it.

I took split pea Soup, put 3/4 a can of Water in it, threw it in a magic bullet until it was pure liquid, and that was my full liquid. I did that with most things. I don't like cream of wheat, and my doctor actually told me no oatmeal during this phase, so I stayed away from it.

When I was struggling during the liquids phase, my nutritionist said I could move to cream of wheat (not oatmeal for whatever reason)...

FYI - cream of wheat comes in a variety of flavors now, and while the original is blech, the maple and cinnamon are delish!
