Hi,
I am looking for some help and advice please.
I have cooked every annabel karmel / lorraine kelly recipe under the sun. You name it I have made it. And dd will eat probably about 5 -6 mouthfuls before getting bored / fed up. She then takes ages to eat the rest. I don't force her at all she will open her mouth but it just takes so long. Pudding of course gets woofed down!! She is better with jars as well.
However if I give her steamed brocolli, bits of wholemeal toast, basically anything she can feed herself she is happy content and eats loads.
What is the consensus, should I go with the finger foods alone if so will she get a balanced enough diet? Should I just keep mixing one meal finger, one meal mush?
I am so worried about her becoming a fussy eater or not enjoying meal times.
Has anyone read a good book on develping healthy eating habits? There are lots of recipes out the but I haven't seen many with tips on how to feed them e.g. highchair toys or no toys?
Any advice would be great.
Thanks a lot :-)
