Posting here mainly for traffic.
Dd is 13 months old and never really eaten much. She drinks enough etc, has three bottles a day (trying to hard to wean her off) but she's 6 inches taller than she should be for her age an she's slightly underweight. I feel awful!.
I've tried everything to get her to eat but she won't. She likes to feed herself, I let her but I'll offer food and either way. If it's her feeding herself or I'm feeding her, majority of the time she will just reject it.
So for breakfast (9am) she will have a big bowl of natural yoghurt with lots of blueberries, strawberries, blackberries and some seeds usually or a bowl of porridge with some banana and natural honey. (she likes it but she's iffy with it so she doesn't usually eat a lot.
Lunch (12/1pm) this is so difficult! I like to give her the freshest food I can so I usually do some vegetables or I do her some sort of healthy green salad, beetroot, or I'll do her some beans on toast. She hardly touches this. Even if I feed her or let her feed herself, she just isn't interested
She will then have some milk around 2pm an have an hour nap.
Dinner is at 5pm.
I'll give her some veggies, fish, she had some pasta bake that we made earlier and lapped it up but still, not a huge amount.
Then for 'pudding' I'll give her a kiwi as I've read it can help you sleep.
The she will have a bottle around 8pm and fall asleep but 8/10 times there's a fight to sleep.
Bottle if she wakes up in the night but I'm trying again to put a stop to this.
She just isn't hungry. Does this sound like enough? I offer snacks etc she refuses them.
Should I be more concerned or take her to see someone?
