I have a 9 month old. She's not crawling yet and she's a gorgeous, chubby little thing. MIL has made several comments about her weight. We were having dinner together and DD was happily stuffing it down. She loves food, we do BLW and just let her go for it. MIL was becoming increasingly anxious about the amount she was eating and saying things like "Is she ever going to stop?" and eventually "she'll end up 10 stone at this rate!". Her dinner was salmon, boiled potato, broccoli, cauliflower and carrots. Given that I only offer her healthy, nutrious food, AIBU to let her eat as much as she wants? I thought they self-regulated and I'm sure her proportions will change once she's mobile and grows taller. Or is MIL right and I should be limiting how much she eats at mealtimes?
