Having read a few of the other messages on this board feel a bit better but still get stressed out about this whole thing. My Ds usually a good eater but recently not interested in a lot - except bread and cheese and not even that now and had a few tantrums in the high chair the last few days. Obviously i realise that this is not a healthy diet and trying to feed lots of other nice things he has had before but quite often he throws on floor or takes in mouth and then spits out (even easy stuff like egg, ham etc). He eats really well at the childminder (two days a week) and maybe because there is another child to watch and he gets left to get on with it. I know i am getting stressed which doesnt help and maybe paying him too much attention? Will try the walking away approach. What can i do to calm myself down as think this may help. He is not going to starve i know but food is such an emotive subject - we all want to do our best for our child. Obviously have no problem getting him to eat sweet stuff (although recently has even refused From Frais!) like biscuits, cakes etc
Need to chill out - any advice/ideas??
P.S. currently downstairs eating 12 month jar with DH and eating all of it!
