Plates and drinks

Any tips to get my 11month old to actually eat off a plate and leave his drink on the tray? He only likes to eat off his tray. And when he's finished with his drink he throws it away. Hates it being near him if he's not thirsty?

Unfortunately it’s a waiting game. My first didn’t leave it until closer to 15-18 months. We don’t bother with plates this time around. It just goes straight on the tray.

Yeah I've stopped bothering with them as he instantly empties it out and throws it and if I try to put it back he gets angry/upset 😩 I'll just wait it out then, not a massive deal just when eating out isn't great 😬 xxxx

Eating out is so frustrating when they won’t use plates! 🥴

And he's allergic to dairy 😬 so sometimes can have a reaction from just sitting in a highchair (I've cleaned it) but somehow still manages to miss something 🙄 so without a plate aswell I get worried xxx

We have the same issue and have allergies too (dairy, eggs, pork, barley and sweetcorn) I usually spend a food few minutes cleaning the highchair when we are out because I can't have the worry of cc With at home I do try to put her food back on the playe and tell her no but she thinks she's clever and funny throwing it on the floor along with half her food 🙈

Oh gosh that must be so stressful! How did you work out barley!? My boys Eczema can still flare up and I can't figure out what is is 🙄 any tips ect id appreciate 😊 Yeah it's crazy, he always reacts at a soft play 😔
