Mom's of SW....

I am taking all the advice I can get in teaching my baby to self feed. Instead of letting me feed him or give him sips he's now grabbing everything from me when he's in his high chair. Relentlessly. This is part of the process and he's learning, I know and I'm letting him him have the bowls and spoons and cups and food to feed himself. But he isn't feeding himself lol he's making a mess. I'm just worried he's not getting enough solids now. Any advice welcome, you guys always have great tips : )

I always placed mine in the high chair and gave them a spoon and had one for myself. As they watched what I was doing they would pick up the spoon and try to do it too.

Not going lie they had it everywhere but me having a spoon I could make sure the were getting something

@LilPrincess that’s exactly what I did too.

@LilPrincess I try to give him some from my spoon and he pinches those little lips so tight. He wasn't doing this before a week ago...he was eating everything I gave him!

@Notsimilarreally mine all took spells like that. Is he teething by any chance?
