Hi there... Another one that hasn't posted in here for quite a while. I still read your posts, just happy plotting along.

I would love to hear your experiences with cutlery. Jennifer I know your LO has been effectively using it since a young age. I am wondering how to get BJ to use it properly. I have been trying to teach him how to use a spoon, though today, I used a plastic fork which seemed to be a little better. When I left him to it he would pick up his food with his left hand & try to put it on the fork before putting it in his mouth. Is this a good start? It was very cute to see.

Also, I still put all his food on his tray. I have tried to put a plate down but he just picks it up to look under it & waves it around.

At what age should I expect this to come together?

HEAVEN - I really only started giving DS raw apple a couple of months ago. I did, and still do, peel it, core it, and cut it into wedges. He has never gagged or choked on it
