[blparent] Spoon feeding infants

[Tammy]

Hi,

I used a finger as well at first, mainly to help them learn what the food was, and to make sure at least some of the food got in their mouths.  When they started biting, I stopped and switched to a spoon.

I know this may sound gross, but I find a finger works well.

So far, I've received three very nice introductory emails.  Thank 
you so much
for your welcoming words.



As for questions, I have many, eighteen years worth, I assume.  
My first is
about spoon feeding infants.



Who's got the most effective techniques out there? I personally 
found a
device similar to a large pacifier with a mesh pouch on one end 
and a handle
on the other.  I fill the mesh with food of all kinds and let 
Harrison suck
the food out from the mesh.  It's pretty cool but I do want more
opportunities to feed him with a spoon.  What's the best methods 
out there?
Has anyone used this mesh device in the past?



Thanks in advance,



Chad
