DD is becoming more and more difficult with eating. Recently she's started insisting she's not hungry at breakfast time but then gets really hungry later in the morning. By this time we're generally out and about doing stuff so all I can give her is whatever snack stuff I have in my bag. If I give her too much (ie as much as she wants) she doesn't end up being hungry at lunch time, then we have the same problem in the afternoon, evening etc so getting a proper meal into her some days ends up being a real battle.
We rarely have whole days at home but when we do I'll just give her an early lunch or supper to make up for the lack of an earlier meal but it's not always that straight forward.
Any suggestions as to what I can do to encourage a decent breakfast? It worries me when she goes off for a day at pre-school on an almost empty stomach.
