It's a great source of calcium and protein. Also, bread is something I can usually get her to eat when nothing else will do. Good luck. I know as a mother this can be very frustating. <br /><br />JuliaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6835451994540750973.post-49136686687865615592011-02-25T09:23:34.687-08:002011-02-25T09:23:34.687-08:00Sorry you are having food struggles. Alas, we'...Sorry you are having food struggles. Alas, we've had them (or are having them) with both of our girls. Veggies are just not a big hit with our girls either. They aren't big meat eaters too. Our oldest has finally gotten out of the big struggle period, but it didn't happen until 5-6 years old. I have chosen to give them chewy vitamins to fill any "holes" in their diet and play to their strengths. Fruit is great vitamin and fiber food, I just try to make sure it isn't fruit mixed with sugar (use no sugar added applesauce and if canned fruit is used, use the kind in juice). <br /><br />You are a great mommy. If Millie is growing, she is eating enough. My girls are thin, but they keep growing up, so they must be getting enough. Over the course of a week, I bet she is meeting her dietary needs, just not each need each day. <br /><br />Just know you are not alone!Melissa Mnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6835451994540750973.post-46928340672008345532011-02-23T19:06:25.046-08:002011-02-23T19:06:25.046-08:00It's so nice to see your Blogs again Jamie!

I have found the best way to get her to eat is to give her what we eat...including ketchup, salad dressing, etc. She knows when her food is different from ours, and that is usually when she refuses to eat and throws it everywhere. Another thing is giving her utensils...even if I don't think she needs them. She will eat if she has a spoon, or fork.<br /><br />And if she doesn't eat, I put her food up for a bit because she usually changes her mind a bit later. Try not to let her fill up on snacks. Or try new snacks. Bagel with cream cheese or jelly. Try "roll-ups" made of meat and cheese. And just try to be patient. I know how frustrating it is. The pediatrician has been worried about Alice's weight since she started walking, so I'm always trying to get her to eat more!Sarahhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18254674241283398902noreply@blogger.com
