Well this is my first parenting tip - which are mainly to help out the blokes!!

Tip 1 - Never ever finish your food first

Picture the scene - you are mad enough to take out your brood and wife for a lovely meal somewhere and the good wife will always feed the baby whilst she also has her meal. Now by doing this she is guaranteed to have an interrupted meal as she struggles to juggle her meal with a child that is normally spitting out their food over her or refusing food totally but you will reap the benefits of this by having a nice easy mealtime. Whatever you do - do not finish your meal before your partner. If you do this she will always ask you to take over the feeding of the baby while she finishes her meal. This simply means that the stress of feeding the baby is transferred to yourself whilst if you took your time you would have had a nice stress free eating experience and probably chewed your food correctly for the first time in your life.
