We started giving pouches and that just worked so well that we never looked back. He's 18m now and either eats with his hands or eats pouches. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-spoon-feeding#post-1880391 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 11:27:39 +0000 ShootingStar 1880391@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>D is 10m and I rarely spoon feed him now. Only if we feed him purees, which only happens if I don't have enough finger foods for a meal. 95% of his food just gets put on his highchair tray. Or if we're out, like thismorning at panera, I just hand feed him bites of food. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-spoon-feeding#post-1880389 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 11:25:52 +0000 Corduroy 1880389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We're spoon feeding about 1/3 of the meal at 19 months per LO's request. She most often asks for help when she is very hungry and can't feed herself fast enough. She is a good eater and quite capable with a spoon. Daycare still spoon feeds part of the meal so I haven't tried to break the habit yet. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-spoon-feeding#post-1880387 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 11:23:49 +0000 pinkcupcake 1880387@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I still spoon-feed her sometimes at 2.5 years. Usually she wants to feed herself, but sometimes when she's playing or sick, she wants me to feed her. </p> <p>She is a poor eater and I'll do anything to get her to eat, so I'll probably keep feeding her for awhile... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-you-stop-spoon-feeding#post-1880381 Sun, 28 Sep 2014 11:17:54 +0000 sunny 1880381@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When did you stop spoon feeding (both entire meals and a few spoons here and there)? Is your LO a good eater or are they picky?</p> <p>We are still spoon feeding half her meals because she is so slow and so picky. She's probably way too old for this but I feel that if I don't help her she wouldn't ever get enough. </p>
