1 year eatting help!
I have a 1 year old that is very difficult. I constantly try to make her something she will eat and it never works. Shes sooo picky. She barely eats anything she takes a milk bottle before naps and night time. But how do I get her to eat. Its stressing me out! She would only eat veggie straws or puffs if I let her. She wont take baby food. Im lucky if I get in some chicken or toast in her. And if I do its ony a few bites. She loves cheese and yogurt before bedtime but like what am I suppose to do feed her cheese and yogurt all day?!?! I try new things multiple times and she just Cries and wants down. How do I ake sure she’s getting enough and healthy food. Shes killing me im bending over backwards and nothing’s working. Please help this mama out THANKS!!!!

First thing I would do is stop the bottles. Sippy cups should be started now and bottles should be phased out at this point. So offer cups instead of bottles. She is still associating bottles with feeding, instead of cups with drinking and food with feeding. According to my daughters pediatrician, it is completely normal for young children to eat one bite of food per year of age. So if your child is one, one bite of food at each meal is normal. They tend to eat what they need. At meal time, give her whatever you are eating and try not to make mealtime a power struggle by just allowing her to eat what she’s going to eat and just stay consistent with this. I forget at what age, but your pediatrician may recommend a multivitamin at some point. And if things don’t get better and you are truly concerned and not sure what to do, call your pediatrician for advice, they will not mind talking to you about it.
