We used Munchkin bowls with our eldest - it was a few years ago now, but I think they were pretty good! Not completely foolproof though.Hey! We’re trying to get things sorted ready for weaning baby Neo whenever she is ready! Does anyone have any recommendations for suction plates or any must haves? I’ve seen some bad reviews where babies can flip bowls and I’d like to limit mess

I have to say for weaning I just plonk food on the high chair tray. Even “wet” foods like curry, spag bol etc. The plate is just a distraction in many cases. We usually don’t introduce one until they are 1+.
I second this!
Thank you! That’s such a good idea to be fair. And the highchair has a tray bit which I’m guessing is designed for that? Saves a bit of money too which is always good!
It tends to just end up on the floor anyway or they spend their time trying to pull the plate off
Do we have any baby potato updates?

He’s not eaten since half 4am so I think so (3 weeks old)
Have you tried just moving his hands away?Any tips for how to feed a baby who’s more interested in sucking their hands than eating from the boob
It's a tell tale sign of hunger. It's just a case of moving his hands and offering him the breast constantly he'll soon realise its the good stuff, especially if he hasn't eaten since half 4..Any tips for how to feed a baby who’s more interested in sucking their hands than eating from the boob
Oh ok. Can you hold his hand down when feeding him?
I don’t have enough hands! He bats them back and shoves them in his mouth as soon as I move to the opposite one

Baby Neo does this with her bottles. So one hand is used for the bottle, and one runs interference for her hands?
I’m really confused. How many hands do you have?I don’t have enough hands! He bats them back and shoves them in his mouth as soon as I move to the opposite one
