Getting picky

[Cindy]

So Conner is starting to get picky with what he eats. He always wants to eat and then when I make him something he takes a few bites and doesn't want it anymore. He really just wants to eat his fruit cups. I wish he was still on baby food it was so much easier! :roll:

OH I KNOW! Baby food was easier and easy to make sure they got enough to eat!

Oh no when Eli doesn't like something he gags himself them pulls it out of his mouth and throws it on the floor! :rolleyes:

I wish I had advice! I think it's just a phase. Tyler will still do this from time to time..

[Elaine]

Ashley... :lol: I know it's not funny when they pitch their food but the gagging thing is a hoot!

Ben started being picky a few months ago. Out of the blue. He just decided one day that the pasta he devoured the week before was crap and he wanted nothing to do with it. He's fine with breakfast but lunch and dinner are a pain.

I've started letting him graze throughout the day instead of giving him lunch and that's helped with him eating his dinner. I'm also giving him all sorts of new things to keep his diet varied. So far it seems to be working and (knock on frickin' wood!) we haven't had many incidents of him not eating what we give him. He may not eat a lot but he will usually eat a little.

Ugh..I so know how you feel! It's so annoying! Ava is so picky and throws her food on the floor for the dog...she actually "calls" the dog over and throws things on the floor.
I hate wasting food, and she throws a fit when I offer new things. I keep trying though and then I end up giving her what she will eat. I hope she changes soon.

I can't say I know what it's like, but I love the Graduates meals. They're just so easy! I feel guilty sometimes for feeding them to him all the time, but oh well.

[Farah]

I just keep trying and trying and trying.

Oh, and I'm totally with Heather on the Graduate meals. I don't think Charlie's rejected one, yet!!!

[Cindy]

Conner does eat the Graduate meals. Some of them he's rather not. He is actually starting to not want those. Maybe it's just a phase. Or it could be since his front teeth are coming it. :idontknow:

[Ashley]

Maybe it is the teeth, and it will pass!! I hope so!
