In case you're wondering, yes I could ask feeding questions ALL DAY long and still not ask all of them that I have!!!
At 10 months of age, if I put food on his tray and he doesn't want it, do I offer something else? Is he going to learn this young that he can resist it and I will give him something else? (I much preferred spoon feeding, because he ate much more that way, and usually ate what was offered.)
EDIT: I think I may have made my question too murky - what I am specifically wondering is this: say I give him peas on his tray and he just pushes them around and isn't very interested. I know he WILL eat Cheerio's, so should I put some Cheerio's on his tray, or is that teaching him to hold out for what he would rather have?
