Ds is 15 months old and mostly really great at eating. He loves vegetables and fruit and he eats fish, meat, dairy products. He enjoys strong flavours, his favorite foods are olives and liver pate.
We struggle to get him to eat carbohydrates, he adores pasta but he doesn't much like bread, rice, potatoes.
We give him the same lunch we have, usually he eats the vegetables and protein but leaves the bread/rice or potatoes, at dinner we have been resorting to giving him pasta almost every night to fill him up so he doesn't wake in the night ( we have recently night weaned him) the pasta dishes are varied, bolognese, creamy salmon pasta, wild mushroom sauce, roast vegetables and pasta, lemon chicken pasta etc. The meals are all homemade and he is given salad/vegetables on the side which he usually finishes. He has fruit after dinner.
We started off doing this as short term solution to fill him up whilst sleep training him, his sleep is great now and I'm wondering if nutritionally people need a variety of different carbohydrate rich food.
Aibu to feed him pasta every night?
