Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Dinner Together?

I've seen a lot of comments about feeding LO's "the same thing that we have for dinner", am I'm curious for those that are doing this, what is your schedule like?

For us LO is eating dinner around 5, but we usually don't eat til around 6.  I'd love to sit down and eat as a family, but our schedules just aren't synched up yet.  TIA!

  • My LO is not quite eating what we are eating completely yet, but I do feed her when we eat as much as possible. For one thing, when I am feeding her I can eat at the same time, verses me trying to watch her run around everywhere while trying to eat. But i

  • I nurse DS around 5pm, when he'll have it [which is a whole other story] and we eat at 6pm. Then bath with me or shower with DH, then lotion, pyjamas, nurse, when he'll have it, then bed.
