I give my dd a mixture of things; mashed/pureed food and finger foods. For her lunch today I put chicken, soft boiled potato, broccoli and carrots on her tray and spent about 25 mins-30 mins trying to get some into her.
Sometimes she gobbles the food with gusto but other times she seems to just play with it and store chunks of food in her top palate which she then cries about later and wants taken out....
How long should I let her play with the food. If she gets frustrated or bored I end the meal, is this right?
Some things she gobbles plenty of porridge, eggy bread. Some foods she loves sometimes (chicken, broccoil) and then isn't bothered with another day...?
