My son stores food in his mouth like a chimpmunk?
my son is 16 months and when eating dinner, will chew up his food but refuse to swallow it. he'll "pack" it into his cheeks or under his tongue and won't swallow or spit it out. usually, i have to either dig it out or keep asking him until he'll spit it out. he doesn't always do this, but loves to do it when he is eating bread or chicken.
is this normal? how can i get him NOT to do it? does anybody else have a toddler that hoards food in their cheeks?
