to give up on dinner

[dubbada]

My DD 9months is turning her nose up at my cooking in favour of a banana.

Shes eaten this meal before and liked it but today her lips are clamped it is not going to happen!

So aibu to give in and give her another b**y banana and call it quits

Why not give her a bit of banana and then a spoonful of 'dinner' - doesn't really matter in what order to goes in does it?

sorry 'to' should be 'it'!

What did you make? My son did (still does) this. I tended to dump a little on his tray and give him some banana to be going on with. Then I walk away and mysteriously find the food has vanished while I wasn't looking.

You won't make her eat it if she doesnt want to but you might make her curious enough to try if you leave some in the vicinity of her hands.

No. YANBU. My DS is 2.8 and has been very very fussy. Things he will eat one day he won't eat the next. I know not why.
Tonight he is having fish, garlic flatbread and beans and peas. Which is completely random but at least he will eat it. No point in stressing, you can't force them to eat something. That is my conclusion after nearly two years of tearing my hair out.

My DS used to do this when he was a baby - I used to mix his dinner with the plain yoghurt he was really after and he ate it fine! Seems disgusting to me, but he seemed to like it..... Could you do something similar?
