I think my LO and i need a vacation from each other...lol. Between him refusing to eat at meals and waking up at 4, I am going mad. Lately, every time i go to put him in his high chair, he starts freaking out. This morning he kicked and bit me while I was putting him in. When I put food on his tray, he throws it on the floor immediately. Even when i know that he likes the food I am giving him. I have resorted to putting on Elmo and he will settle and eat. I hate using the TV like this, but I don't know what to do. This morning we tried a picnic on the floor and he ate. But he was playing too and i don't like him moving all over this house with food in his hands. When this first started happening, I was thinking he wasn't hungry. But he eats if he is not sitting is high chair. Yesterday, I avoided the tantrum completely during lunch time, by feeding him while he was walking around. Again, I know this isn't a great idea, nor is this a habit I want to get in to. But I don't know what to do. Any suggestions?
