HELP!!
I've read what I can on this and have extra spoons so he gets a spoon to 'feed himself' with but he's caught on, so now its got to have food on it. Now I have a couple of spoons on rotation, load it with food, hand it to him and hope some gets in the mouth and swallowed, get the next spoon, load it, hand it to him in exchange for the now-empty one, and so on...
Mess I can deal with but how do I know how much is actually getting into him?
If I don't do the extra spoons thing, he sticks both his hands in his mouth or grabs the bowl of the spoon and smears the food everywhere and will not eat anything. This is a kid who's been on solids for 1.5 weeks!!!
I don't know what I'm really asking. I guess any BTDT would help and ideas for how to keep food time interesting please?
