I have always just given my baby as much food as she wants. I make almost all of it from healthy fresh ingredients, except for a few of those ella's fruit pouches as a snack if she is freaking out on the bus.
She is in the 98th percentile for weight and 75th for height, but my husband and friends and family keep commenting on how big/fat she is and keep asking what I feed her and telling me to stop feeding her so much.
When do children need to be restrained? Do I say no when she asks for more food?
