Posting for traffic really. My son is 3 and a half years old, he was 2 months prem and IUGR, weighed 2lbs at birth so don't know if that plays a part. He is still smaller than other children and super skinny but he is a very active little boy and eats like a horse. Nursery are always shocked how much he eats with them and at home in comparison to his size.
So a typical day would be:
Breakfast - cereal and fruit
Snack at about 10am at nursery fruit rice cakes breadsticks etc
Lunch: main meal cottage pie/curry/ roast and pudding (they say he has seconds and thirds!)
2:30pm biscuit and milk
Tea time: beans on toast/pasta bakes and pudding (again seconds and thirds)
Comes home at 5:30pm claiming to be starving so he then has more snacks mostly fruit if I can but sometimes chocolate! And he goes on about food until he's had his milk at 7/7:30 and goes to bed!
Does your kids eat more/less? Would you feed him more snacks or increase his meals or do you think he has enough? I worry he would eat until he's sick.
