Taken at one of the meal times gone bad!!!I have known for a long time that despite of Caden's chubbiness and muscular looking, he is a VERY fussy eater. It is so hard to make him try new things. We used to be able to sneak new foods into his mouth. If he likes it, he would shallow it, and if not, he would just spit it out.
But it doesn't work that way anymore. He is older now, he gets upset very easily when he sneak a new food into his mouth that he would cry hysterically and would not taste the food at all (read: even if his tongue thought that it has a nice taste, he would be too upset to shallow it).
So we have doomed that method. Now, at every meal times, we need to distract him with stufffs...anything that attracts him will do; his toys, frying pan, soup spoon, fake egg, fruits, ballon, ice, etc etc. And on bad days, which occur quite often, it takes two of us to feed him.
It takes a lot of creativity on my side! But it does works most of the time.
When he starts to scream or look stressed-out, I let him go, even though if he hasn't eat a single spoon. (I don't believe in forcing someone to eat). Later on, I will make sure to give him more milk.
PS: He is still skipping his lunch. Only breaskfast and dinner are served! ^_^
