what a mess...

[CONNEELY]

how do i let my daughter feed her self when it goes everywhere,least of all in her mouth.when she finally manages to put any food in her mouth she then insists on taking it out again.
she loves her food and there isnt anything she doesnt like.any advice...

Get a splat mat! Welcome to motherhood.

its not the floor im worried about,u c it gets in her hair,her eyes,u name it,apart from feeding her naked what can i do?

I used to make bathtime follow mealtime. Baby wipes are fantastic for clearing up faces and hands too. And those bibs with a scoop at the bottom really help.

i think i am going to have to invest in a few of these,but its sods law,after her dinner i got her undressed down to nappy,then chopped up bannana for her and she ate the whole lot...no mess

I have a photo of dd1 after she had dispensed with her first ever strawberry. It is astonishing how far one strawberry will go, and I believe she ate some of it too!

i am beginning to know the story very well..

I have a picture like that of first ever chocolate!

My DD is going thru the same phase. She is really good and will take the loaded fork out of your hand and put the food end in her mouth quite cleanly, then she opens her mouth, sticks her hand in and starts having a good rummage ! Having selected a choice piece of semi digested food she will take it out, inspect it and then out it back in her mouth again. Infuriating but undeniably charming !

its amazing to think they ever put any weight on what ages are your children?
