Tips about your baby's diet

In theory, you know everything there is to know about feeding your baby. But sometimes between theory and practice, we must adapt. First meal with a spoon when baby will not eat, ideas or other dietary tips: nothing better than practical advice about baby food.

First meal with a spoon

From bottle to spoon

Early diversification, sometimes baby refuses the spoon. Use a spoon preferably silicone (or plastic). Unlike a metal spoon, it is neither cold nor hard and less baby scare.

Baby wants to eat alone

Sometimes baby wants to hold his spoon and refuses to eat if it was you who gave it to him. The problem is that he is still clumsy and unable to put food in his mouth. Do not panic! Use two spoons, one for baby, one for you. While baby will train dining alone, you can feed him without some attention!

Baby refuses spoon

At his first meal, if your baby pushes the spoon, use your fingers instead! Well with nails flush and clean hands of course!

Suitable for baby spoon

To help your baby to eat (at first it's hard to bring the contents of the spoon to his mouth), make him his spoon: spoon bend steel (right side if the baby is left handed and left if it is handed). It is perfectly oriented to his mouth and he can eat like a "big".
