Does your LO give you a "no more" signal when eating solids?

DD never really stops eating, we either run out of food or I cut her off. I am wondering if I am underfeeding her....she just keeps opening her mouth for more food. She will start to play with the spoon and look around more and then I usually cut her off. She probably eats 2 tablespoons of oatmeal and 1-2 ounces of a purree per feeding.

    We do blw but when he starts playing that's when I know he's done. I think when their attention starts to go elsewhere.

    DD will start playing with something or keep turning her head away when done eating.  If she eats all of her food and still seems hungry I will offer her something else to see if she really is hungry still.

    DD either starts playing with the spoon/bowl or she'll purse her lips together so the spoon can't go in her mouth anymore.

    She stops opening her mouth and turns her head away. Sometimes she will swat the spoon away with her hand.

    We do BLW so it might be different, but DD starts playing with her food more and eating less, and she gets more squirmy- tries to climb out of her chair. That's when I know she's done and take her upstairs for a bath =)
