[quote=Anonymous]First child ate separately until she was about 18 months old. Mostly because she needed an earlier dinner (due to her bedtime) than I was willing to tolerate. She would eat the same foods as us, or other comparable normal foods, but just at a different time. Husband and I always use to eat at about 8 pm on the couch pre-kids. I had to be dragged to an earlier dinner time kicking and screaming basically. At about 18 months she was mostly eating dinner at 6:30 pm (for 8 pm bedtime) and I decided I could do that, so we started eating together every night. Second baby, as soon as he was on solid foods we always ate dinner together. But I really dislike eating with an infant haha. He is so messy and unruly! My daughter was not like that. It is a really stressful dinner most of the time. Almost everytime I'm like, wow, we should just have him eat separately. But now we don't really have time for two separate dinners.[/quote]
