Spitting out food - yeuch

[~Kim~]

Both my kids have done it. I never found anything that worked to prevent it. It passed, like all things. Nate was particularly bad at it and still does it on occasion. If he wanted an apple he had to eat it outside....saved me some time lol.
When we're out I try to just be discreet. Yep it's yuck but I figure it could be far worse. It's kind of random for him so I figure it's a particular sensation on a particular day.

We take DS' food off him if he does that. Best not to make a fuss about it (that just encourages them ) - we just have a rule that you eat food, not play with it. If he's playing, the food gets taken away.

Thanks ladies. CrazyLady he still has to get his 2 year molars but don't think they're on the move at the moment as none of the other signs of horrid teething episode approaching are showing so don't think that the cause at the moment. Guess I'll just try ignoring the behaviour when he does it the next few times and see if he gets bored with it as he won't be getting any additional attention!
