suggestions for a picky eater? My 2yo dd is driving me insane. Food is so expensive as it is, but then watching her reject it or throw it on the floor makes me want to wring her neck! Then she wakes up at 4am begging for a bottle of milk. What do I do? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

i know what you mean. i used to say that i shouldn't bother cooking, i should just put the food straight into the garbage. then i realized that was dumb and i started saying that i should just mail a check to the supermarket and not even bother with the whole experience. i'd limit the offerings to a piece of american cheese and maybe a rice cake. if dcs are hungry enough, they'll eat it. and no bottles!

what does she like? I have 2 dds and when they were 2yr old I was lucky to get them to eat one big meal a day. The kids at this age cut down their intake but then the appetite comes back around 3.5. As for the pickiness, I give them what they like but hide veggies in it. So in my 3yr old case she loves pasta and butter..I bake chicken or turkey and mix with pasta. I also take veggies and hide in the pasta sauce (puree cauliflower, ect). I also try to serve a little of what she won't try a few times (not too much to throw out) and after a few times on the plate, she tries it. I know it's hard. My sis uses the Jessica Seinfeld book for her twins who are very picky too and it works with them [ Reply | More ]
