Meal time set ups
Hi ladies
I feel like mealtimes have become the most stressful part of the day with my LO and we need a reset.
We sit in the kitchen. He is in his highchair and I sit opposite him on a bar stool leaning on the island. We're not level - I'm a bit higher. He doesn't really eat - more so throws everything; doesn't want to be there; gets upset with me when I stress and as it happens all the time it's getting disheartening.
My in laws have no trouble feeding him - they sit at their dining table in the kitchen which is more level with the high chair and distract him with toys / tv. My parents let him run around and feed him whilst he's playing.
Hoping you'll share your setups for inspo so I can mix things up a bit?
TIA 🙏🏼
Honestly, it changes so frequently 😂 Sometimes he will tolerate breakfast in his high chair, other times I have to let him loose so he can play between bites of toast 🙃 He eats better if he’s allowed to graze throughout the day rather than 3 main meals + snacks.
