try your hardest not to throw the NO word around, they become numb to hearing it so often and then dont take you seriously even if you have to tell then no with other language! and the bigger vocabulary you say to them the easier it is for them to pick up on it later on in life... good luck i think its just a phaze that they go through but with no reaction they will lose intrest

9 months old play with their food thats how they learn to eat! I wouldn`t always keep giving her more cause then it`ll be game... don`t make a huge issue of it or again she`ll do it for attention.. I know my son (10 months) likes to throw his bottle on the floor when hes in the high chair...I`ll get it a few times then i take it away if he keeps doing it,... i figure its a game at that point and he really doesn`t want it. I will say ` no dropping` if he does keep it up but not every time... I think if we use `no` to much at this age it looses its value!

I think every baby throws their food on the floor. I swear I`m forever vacuuming up Cheerios!

Well I`m not sure if she is too young for this but the little 18 month old I nannied for would spit all her found out. It was disgusting and not acceptable in my book. The parents didn`t care at all. So one day when we were out at lunch I told her `here are your chicken nuggets. You do not spit them out of your mouth. You have to eat them or they are going to go bye bye.` Well what do you think she did with her first bite? It all came out. So I took them away and put them on the other side of the table. A few minutes later, I asked her if she wanted them and I told her the exact same thing again. She did it again so I took it away again. The time after that she got it and NEVER did it again when I was there(her parents where another story)
