19 MO DS SUDDENLY FUSSY EATER!!!!!

[gillythekid]

He used to be soooo good! Now I struggle. He loves fish but I can't give him too much. Any ideas for quick healthy meals that might smuggle in some fruit and veg? Need good snacks too as Grandma and Grandad have introduced him to biscuits (oh dear)

look in annabel karmel fussy eaters book it full of ideas on how to get kids to eat and hide things.

Have you tried getting him to make it? I do this with all of mine and it works a treat. Fajitas for example, all the bits are there and they make it up - they always eat better that way. Or little pizza toasts where they build it up and I just blast for a second. Or curry with lots of little tubs of raisins, yoghurt, coconut etc. And dippers - so carrot, breadsticks, celery, pepper with philadelphia/salsa etc. Same with fruit and yoghurt

Is the food tasty enough for him? My kids can't stand bland food.

perhaps he's learnt that if he refuses stuff you give him things he prefers? I would just leave it on the table and say he can come back to it later if he's hungry. don't make a fuss as they get too much attention and you'll get stressed.
