I saw some mesh feeders one www.onestepahead.com. I've been told that fresh fruit is great for putting in them, though I haven't used one yet.
Where can we get a mesh feeder for our 7mo ?

We took ours back to the store after seeing my niece eat some items from Thanksgiving dinner out of her mesh thingy. It grossed me out totally and completely.
I could see how they would be useful for an ice cube but you can also fill up those cute Under the Nile organic veggie teething toys and freeze them and the kid can have it by themselves and go to town with no choking threat.
I just think they are kind of gross when people put food in them.

Don't be discouraged from trying it. It's no more gross than your baby grabbing a handful of banana or something, smushing it over and over again through his fingers until it's unrecognizable , and then smushing it all into his mouth.

My ds doesn't use his often, but he has fun when he does. Our favorite food is grapes. I love grapes and it makes it easy for him to try it.
If you try banana and similar foods, just soak it in some soapy water as soon as dc is done then spray the bits out. I haven't had any trouble cleaning mine. Have fun!

I put a frozen banana in mine... DS had no interest in the frozen banana and I had no interest in cleaning the mesh with mushed banana. So, I threw it away.

I got mine from drugstore.com. I needed to spend $25 to get free shipping so I threw one of those onto my order. We've been putting frozen mango in it b/c DD is teething. You do have to clean it right away, though.
