Food throwing 🤦‍♀️

How is everyone tackling the food throwing phase? Since my little girl has turned 1 all she does is throw every meal on the floor… I’m starting to get concerned that she isn’t eating enough. If I try and feed her myself she kicks off like crazy, she hates it… yet if I give her food so she can feed herself she takes one / two bites then throws it all on the floor. I’m trying not to react to her throwing food on the floor as I know they look for that at this age, I just don’t know how to tackle this going forward?

Following for the same advice x

No advice but my LO is doing it but gets spoon fed as well.

my little boy is doing this. i put a snack plate on the living room floor so he can grab food when he wants it. it’s only been a couple days but definitely seems to be working

Pretty much going through double as I just keep topping up and now and then she eats but majority ends up on the floor đź«Ł

Mine does this, I read it could be a few things: 1. They’re simply full 2. They’re testing gravity! 3. There’s too much on the plate Maybe try putting less in front of them? I usually put like a third of the food on front of him then add to it as he eats what’s there and that helps a little! It’s a totally normal stage though!!

My lb did this for a little bit. We took the plate away and would give him little bits at a time. We also started practising giving the food back to us if he is all done and now he only throws occasionally if he is full x

My LG does this. I use the silicone stick down plates so she can’t through the whole thing and I only put one of each thing on her plate at a time. If she starts throwing I’ll stop filling her plate up and feed her myself if she refuses I just stop the meal.
