The slight drawback to that is that the child is lusting after all our food right now. She watches each bite go into our mouths, reaches for everything in sight, is practicing chewing, and even prefers to sit with us at the table at dinner (she used to nap through dinner). The good news is that she's at least showing that sign of readiness (interest in food). The bad news - for her - is that I'm not sure she's met the other ones yet, including not being older than six months.
So she has to wait a couple more weeks, but, in the meantime, I thought it would be nice to keep her better entertained at dinnertime. The spoons, teething toys, and various other toys just aren't keeping her occupied well enough.
Enter an ice cube tray and some pumped milk.... and a mesh feeder. Bewb juice popsicle!!!
It took her a couple tries to figure out what part of the feeder to hold to her mouth, but she quickly figured it out and it kept her happy the whole time we ate.
Win-win for everyone!
That's a great idea! And it will also help soothe her gums when she starts teething.
