She loves her finger foods but we also do purée to make sure she's getting enough. When we go out to eat we take our time because we usually have to wait for her to finish. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-163958 Sun, 20 May 2012 14:49:01 +0000 heffalump 163958@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm a slow eater, so I wouldn't doubt if LO was like me. But now she still isn't great at getting the food into her mouth, so it takes her a while. She always picks it up, looks at it, drops it, tries to find it, etc. I let her do that until I'm finished with my meal, then I stick the rest of the food in her mouth for her. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-162069 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:09:04 +0000 Andrea 162069@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Rubies: hahaha, awwww cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-162067 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:08:30 +0000 Rubies 162067@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Andrea: Yeah, I can imagine. When I put out Cheerios in front of her, it takes a good 15 seconds for her to finally get it in her mouth! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-162063 Thu, 17 May 2012 19:07:18 +0000 Andrea 162063@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Yoyo: haha, yeah DD used to scream at me, too! But they get more patient as they grow older!</p> <p>@Rubies: DD used to be so fast when I fed her but self feeding has gotten sooooo slow! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-161960 Thu, 17 May 2012 18:40:48 +0000 Rubies 161960@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO eats really fast and is very impatient if I don't have the next spoonful ready for her when she swollows the bite in her mouth. Sheesh. But yeah, a full meal lasts 15 minutes, at most! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-161952 Thu, 17 May 2012 18:39:26 +0000 Mrs. Yoyo 161952@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>OMG I have the opposite. Baby Y shovels everything into his mouth as fast as he can and screams at me if I take too long cutting something up. It's honestly freaky how fast he can pack food away. Also, he never seems to get full. I swear he would just eat until his little tummy popped if I kept feeding him. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-161933 Thu, 17 May 2012 18:34:37 +0000 chopsuey 161933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She eats soooooo slow </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/is-your-lo-a-slow-or-fast-eater#post-161915 Thu, 17 May 2012 18:26:29 +0000 Andrea 161915@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD can be pretty darn slow. Tonight she took an hour to eat dinner. I just sit there next to her since that is our quality time together and we have little chats (I wait for DH to come home and eat). </p>
