Or should I? DD is 18 weeks and sits on my knee during mealtimes (she's very clingy and will just squalk incessantly if put down). Over the last few days she's started grabbing things off my plate and giving them a good taste. AFAIK she is just tasting, or giving things a bit of a gumming then moving on. Last night was rice and broccoli, today she had half my nectarine off me.
I'm not planning on weaning her yet if I can avoid it, but I'm also not going to be militaristic about denying her tasting food if she's going for it. Should I be putting her on her own seat and giving her food to play with? Or just be thankful that she's reducing my portion sizes and my ever-increasing waistband by dumping a lot on the floor. DS was weaned too early and I don't want to make the same mistake twice!
