Dc3 is now 14 months and still eats very little, if at all. We started blw when she was just over 6 months and I have been a little complacent with the whole 'food is fun until they're one' thing, just offered manageable portions of our food and let her get on with it. Am getting slightly anxious now and just looking for opinions really.
She is offered everything we have but is very selective. She eats yogurt (only thing she has ever taken from a spoon) and has 2 small pots a day. She eats dried breakfast cereal and hill have approx 10 rice crispies and 3 shreddies for breakfast (yes really). She eats plain cous cous. She sucks on toast and will tolerate a bit of mashed avocado. She eats roast, baked and wedgie potatoes. Sometimes eats roast parsnip or beetroot. Loves sausages, ice cream, birthday cake, biscuits, easter eggs etc when she can get them. Everything else goes on the floor.
I think back to the stuff my other two ate at her age and feel like I've failed with weaning. She is perfectly capable if eating, she just doesn't.
She has been on the same weight centile since she was born and sleeps through. Otherwise has 3 bottles of cows milk plus 1 bf a day.
Have no faith in hv but am going to see gp for an opinion. But would like any mn opinions first please!
