Mine is eating three full meals and two snacks a day. And still seems hungry at times.. I figure he is growing and I’m letting him eat as much as he wants but dang… it’s getting out of control. He eats what we eat for his meals, but since he is still hungry, we buy the baby snacks, such as puffs, teething crackers, yogurt bites, etc. My goal was to make everything from scratch but I can’t keep up anymore.
Same! I’m like I literally cannot meal prep anymore food 😅😭 thank you all so much though, now I don’t feel so alone
Absolutely feed until they are done. I taught my son to sign all done when he is finished and he does that. Right now his molars are coming in on the bottom both sides so his appetite isn’t the same we even have to give puree for dinner bc he is refusing food but is hungry. He is also a lil sick so that doesn’t help at all.
I am so trying to get the “all done” sign down. We do it every day and he will mimick me by saying “ga ga” in the same melody that I say all done but won’t do the motion on his own. Around what age did your LO start signing it?
@Jaime around 9-10 months he picked that up. But he kids says it during the meal but will continue to eat still at 12 months old but it does indicate his is done soon. My boy says eat all done more yes no in sign language. But only will actually say momma and Dada. He walked at 9 months. All kids are different so it takes time to learn these things and all kids meet the milestones at a huge gap of months.
we are the same.. absolute food monster.. am sticking to give him as much as he wants until he stops which seems to work well.. he is breastfed also x
