Hi mummies, my 2 yo takes forever to eat her food and she likes to keep food in her mouth like a hamster. I always have to remind her to chew her food. Most of the time i need 2 hrs to feed her and this is really frustrating. I try not to lose my temper but is like testing my limit.

Perhaps it helps you have fixed eating schedule for your child and during said meal time, aim to keep to the time and avoid distractions like TV, toys or talking to your child. My friend would usually takes her child for a stroll in her pram after mealtime and this motivates the little one to finish her meal so that she gets to go out and spend some time seeing the "birdies".
