Dd does sometimes feed herself - she is little miss independent and sometimes thats best way to get her to eat. I use the gerber spoons or any other baby brand spoon. HTH and goodluck!

she can get it into her mouth. but i have to put the food on it for her. haven't even attempted a fork yet.

oh...and most of the time, the food ends up in her hair. ew.

I have only tried a fork as I think it is much easier to just stab the food. She still does not get it but I keep trying

Nope, too early. My oldest mastered it around 16-18 months and perfected it closer to 20-22 months old.
