Now, whether that delivers much yogurt into her mouth is another question. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-395154 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 13:23:16 +0000 heffalump 395154@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>At 15 months lo is great at putting the food in her mouth with her fork but she cant get the food on the fork by herself. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-394933 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 12:12:36 +0000 T-Mom 394933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He started grabbing it from me before 1 yr, but at 14 mo is still not able to get much on the spoon even though he can bring it to his mouth. He is pretty good with a fork. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-394844 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 11:47:17 +0000 IcebergMom 394844@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We started around 13 months and at 16 months she's still pretty bad! Her spoon is always upside down! Haha </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-394812 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 11:38:41 +0000 .twist. 394812@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think 1 is pretty normal. Our youngest didn't start using utensils until around probably 2 or 3. His mother doesn't believe in it or something. I think MacDonald's is her preferred meal establishment. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-394804 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 11:32:41 +0000 chopsuey 394804@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We introduced at around 1 year. At 19 months she's pretty good but only uses her utensils half the time. It's easier to shovel food into your mouth with your hands. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-394796 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 11:30:16 +0000 Andrea 394796@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She started using a spoon at around 11 months. It took a while for her to get good with the fork after I introduced it at 1 year. Now she likes to use kiddie chopsticks. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-start-using-utensils#post-394785 Tue, 13 Nov 2012 11:27:15 +0000 autumnlove 394785@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO isn't close but I can dream, right? </p>
