DS refuses to sit in high chair- ideas??
Our little man is the happiest little 11 month old but lately he is refusing to sit in his high chair or pram. He cries hysterically and arches his back so that it would be impossible for him to sit, unless I force him which obviously I don't want to do.
I want his chair and pram to be happy places for him, rather than a punishment. I try using toys or food to distract or tempt him, but nothing seems to work.
I have no real objections to him sitting on the ground to eat if we're at home, but he doesn't eat as much as he crawls off to play with something rather than eating his food. And I also feel its important to teach him that we stop to eat at meal times as a family..
The funny thing is that once he's in the chair or pram for five mins, he is absolutely fine so I don't think they are painful for him..
Any ideas?? I'm happy for him to become more independent but also feel we need to improve the situation for all involved! Thanks so much.
