Hi
My ds is 16 months and goes to a local daycare nursery for two mornings a week. My friend's son goes there too and is a similar age. He goes different mornings to my ds.
Both boys arrive at about 8, have breakfast, mid morning snack at lunch at 11.15 or 11.30.
Most days I am told that my ds has eaten really well at breakfast and lunch and finished everything. Sometimes he has 'seconds'.
Yet when he gets home at around 12.45 he is always starving and my friend has the same with her son.
If they ate that much at home at lunch time they would not be starving I'm sure.
SO the point is, are we being told they have eaten loads and they haven't really OR is there something weird about being at nursery that makes them extra hungry - neither of them are super active types btw - they can both walk and run but mostly prefer hanging out with a book to tearing around like crazy.
Has anyone else had similar after nursery? Are we being led up the garden path?!!
My friend has been told once or twice that her ds hasn't eaten so they aren't telling us everytime that they have finished everything.
Any thoughts?
