@solidstarts: Wait don't wipe. While some babies don’t mind at all, the vast majority of babies will react negatively to frequent and/or aggressive wiping of their face and hands during and after mealtime. To help baby avoid negative associations with their high chair, try these tips for cleaning up: 1️⃣ Prepare baby. Try not to surprise or catch them off guard with wiping 2️⃣ Bring a pitcher of water to the table to help with cleanup or if you can, move directly to the sink 3️⃣ Use soft wipes for baby’s face which can be extra sensitive especially after consuming acidic foods 4️⃣ Sing a favorite song or play music to lighten the mood 5️⃣ Count it Out. Give baby a set time for how long cleanup will last And if all else fails, guide their hand with a washcloth to show them how it’s done or hand it over to give them a bit of ownership in the process. #SolidStarts #babyledweaning #babyledweaningideas #firstfoods #whatmybabyeats #babyfoodideas #6monthsold #babydevelopment #babymilestones #childdevelopment #100firstfoods #healthybabyfood #babyledeating #blwinspiration #babyfoodprep #babyfood #babyfoodie #momtips #whatmytoddlereats #startingsolids #solidfood #5monthsoldbaby #6months #6monthsoldbaby #babyledfeeding #firstfood #feedingbaby #4monthsoldbaby #messyeater #gobabygo
I always wait until after she finishes her food to “wash her hands” and she built a healthy relationship with cleaning up after yourself

I’ve started taking my 11m to the sink to ‘wash up.’ She thinks she’s just playing with the water, but it makes it soo much easier to clean her than her fighting me to clean her face

surprisingly my baby loves having her face wiped, especially in the bath. I'll keep this in mind when she starts solids.
