10 month old feeding himself??

Question

my son is 10 months and doesnt know how to put finger food in his mouth yet. i still have to do it for him. is this normal or is he behind? He doesnt put much in his mouth but stuffed animals.

Answer 1

My oldest son was capable, but still didn't like to feed himself until he was well over two. And my 7 month old is already holding his own bottle. The span for what's "normal" is sooooo huge, you have nothing to worry about.

Answer 2

I think it is pretty normal my son was the same way, I got him started by using Gerber Puffs, just dump a handful out somewhere that he can get to them, I ate a bunch myself then he just started doing it.

Answer 3

its normal,and he is just 10 months old,,,you should ask your mom this question,when you were 10 months

Answer 4

he sounds gorgeous.
