Some toddlers are just too active to eat only at the table. My second child was this way. She eats only at the table now (age 5), but she ate on the run for a while. [ Reply | More

To ease your mind, there is cause for concern if there is more than a 50 percentile DIFFERENCE between height and weight. If she were, say, 25 percentile for height and 80 percentile for weight, it's time to put on the brakes. But since she's exactly the same percentile for height and weight, as long as she is eating healthy foods, she's fine. [ Reply | More
