Even if she just ate!! Why does she do this? I don't understand. I mean she does this all the time.

Because you are sitting down and she knows, I suspect, that you will pick her up and hold her. I presume that you or he has reinforced this behavior enough that she has you figured out.

Wait till she's a toddler. Or worse, a teenager!!

Trust me when I say you are not the only one going through this...I couldn't tell you how many cold dinners I ate or dinners I ate while holding a baby because all 3 of my girls did it. It's like they have some kind of radar that says "hey mommy is about to eat lets start crying"

She is fascinated by everything you do and eating smells good too!!

When my baby was tiny we used to take turns to hold her while we ate. Eventually she was old enough for a high chair and now she's a year old she sits with us when we eat during the day.

How old is your baby ,maybe your baby smells the food and is ready for some solids or maybe a tast depending on what it is.My son started doing that at like 4.5-5months so I put him in ahighchair at the table and started expeirimenting giving tiny peices and little tastes of things bring some toys lay them out on the tray and a bottlein case something gets stuck they gag sometimes just give them a drink they will swallow it.hope this is useful

She can probably smell the food that you are eating. My son used to wake up everytime he smelled my food... and I mean every time... it was horrible. I could barely eat anything with him around. lol I mean i could just lay him down to go to sleep or just lay him down for a nap where he is totally out of it and he will snap awake everytime he smelled any food. Honestly this is a phase that most babies go through, just either hold her while you eat or put her in a swing while you eat. goodluck

ordinarily i'd say feed baby first so parents can eat in peace. but in this case you need to keep her busy while you eat, so if she's really hungry give her food while you are eating, this will keep her quiet. If this doesn't work, feed her early, and if it just fussing--then i'd even put her in her crib or playpen in another room and eat peacefully. This won't last forever--by the time shes a toddler you'll all be able to eat together.

My son did the same thing. he is now 5 1/2 months old and on baby food so i put him in his chair and feed him while we eat and he is totally content. If your baby is old enough put her in a high chair and if you are not feeding her then maybe just give her a toy to play with so she feels involved and she can be more at your level.

It is the parent curse. I am telling you, it has happened with both of my kids and everyone I know. I think it might have something to do with not paying attention to them or something. But serious, this is for whatever reason normal. I joke that I am used to eating cold food because I am a mother, it is just the way it seems to go. GOOD LUCK

Baby wants to mimic mommy and daddy - it's natural. Try feeding her at the same time you eat or if she's older than 6 months, you can try giving her little bits of what you're eating.

can you not put her down from the table and give her a toy / book to amuse her...not sure of age etc but maybe bring her meal time earlier and have yours a little later........sounds like she has JUST had all the focus on her and she is getting a bit put out that now someone else is getting more attention than her.

Regards
