DD is a bottomless pit tonight!

This has never happened before - she has eaten all her dinner (large portion of spinach, broccoli, pork, a whole potato rosti cake - I only had one and a half - then two ramekins of yoghurt, some raspberries) and she is STILL going so I have given her half a bagel which she is gumming away on.

She usually turns her head away/ throws everything on the floor well before finishing all the food on offer.

Should I keep giving her more food until she stops of her own accord? It is nearly bedtime now!

I always assume DD knows how much to eat. It's rare for any animal to over eat, so she probably is hungry, controlling food is probably not helpful.

We used to call that 'stocking up' because they were coming down with something! Sorry not much help :o

Hope she isn't coming down with anything :(

She did stop eventually (mid-way through the other half of the bagel).
