Nicola, I too have a grazer who grazes all day long. So now I prepare a lunchbox every morning with what I want him to eat during the day, including lots of raw vege, and when he says he is hungry, he is allowed to choose an item from the lunchbox and sit down and eat it. This way I know what he has eaten during the day as I am the one who puts the things in and I can see how much he has eaten.

It works, I had to do that ages ago. Michaela had been sick a week earlier and had learned if she threw a spaz we'd skip straight to dessert (usually fruit and yoghurt). I was being played so one night, when she refused what she'd been given I let her get down from the table and basically put her to bed without dinner (DH thought I was soooo cruel). She slept the whole night but woke up starving the next morning and didn't offer me any trouble for a couple of months following.]]> Sat, 26 Apr 2008 15:51:08 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=366581&title=it-gets-worse#366581 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=366553&title=it-gets-worse#366553 Author: Kelpa

I have had a girlfriend who has been a Nanny for 15 years staying. An awesome one at that..... Right clued up about these babies & toddlers.

So our new plan is Blake now gets what we are having....served like we are having..a spoon and fork and can go for gold..if he eats it..great - if not .TOO BAD...he can go without.

No more making different meals..will do meals earlier in day so he is ready to go but no more Dilly dallying around and offering toast and whatever cause I think he is starving...

YAY...FEELS GOOD!(til the Next one comes along!)]]> Sat, 26 Apr 2008 15:02:20 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=366553&title=it-gets-worse#366553 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=365089&title=it-gets-worse#365089 Author: Paws

Miss M hasn't been eating a proper dinner either...I believe she is practising the "air diet" during this time. She has always eaten well enough at breakfast and day care so I'm not too concerened. If she doesn't eat it we just take it away and don't give her anything else!! Especially not when she asks for a "bippy" (bikkie)!! ]]> Thu, 24 Apr 2008 15:39:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=365089&title=it-gets-worse#365089 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364997&title=it-gets-worse#364997 Author: nicolaann

Alex hasn't eaten a proper dinner in over 3 weeks now. I'm hoping he will start again soon. Basically he will eat what he wants, when he wants... and not what I want, when I want. So he grazes all day, and is living on fruit, dairy and chips and crackers!! Hopefully the meat and vege will be wanted soon!! Toddlers... who would have them!! ]]> Thu, 24 Apr 2008 13:43:38 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364997&title=it-gets-worse#364997 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364834&title=it-gets-worse#364834 Author: Bombshell

Tonight mine ate a handful of crunchy potatos with tomato sauce then poured water all over her plate soaking everything else and started splashing.

She then had a couple of spoons of yoghurt but became disinterested and decided to dip her foot into the bowl instead.

I have no idea! Mine scoffed 4 pieces of raisin toast and 2 bananas between them for breakfast yet for dinner they ate one tiny piece of broccoli each and two tiny pieces of carrot then threw the meat and spuds back at me. ]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 18:47:48 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364349&title=it-gets-worse#364349 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364328&title=it-gets-worse#364328 Author: MrsMojo

I wish I knew. Michaela was about 20 mo too when she started eating like a bird and refusing meat and other food she used to like.

Maybe because they're not constantly growth spurting anymore they can grow through longer stages where they don't need as much food (totally an uneducated guess - but it sounds pretty good). Then suddenly she growth spurts and I temporarily become a short order chef at mealtimes to satisfy her hunger ]]> Wed, 23 Apr 2008 18:09:12 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364328&title=it-gets-worse#364328 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=16608&PID=364304&title=it-gets-worse#364304 Author: Kelpa

If there was one thing I could always count on with Blakes eating its that he would scoff HUGE HUGE bowl of vege mash, gravy, mince full of everything....plus homemade some pudding (think why he so big as has religiously eaten that since 7 months)

HOWEVER.............thats all changing...for dinner tonight and last night he has had 4 grapes....4 segments of banana and one piece of bread with jam....



What goes on in these little peoples heads?
