DS is 4.5 years and honestly lives on yogurt, the occasional oatmeal, juice, a banana, one or two bites of pizza, cream cheese, and a pretzel or 2. and never all in one day. Seriously - the past couple days he's just had some yogurt for lunch, some juice, and a half a banana.<br><br>
A brief peanut butter phase encouraged us, as did a scrambled egg phase. I don't think meat has EVER passed his lips.<br><br>
He just doesn't seem to care about food. He doesn't even ask for food. He's got tons of energy, and knock wood has been sick only maybe twice in his whole life.<br><br>
I try to make food alluring - i buy things i think he'll like based on his previous selections. I offer food every couple hours, but never force him to eat. It's not as if he wants "junk food" and we don't have it - he just doesn't really want anything.<br><br>
But really - eventually he'll start eating more, right? I really don't know what else to do.<br><br>
I'm gonna give Smoothies another try this week - banana ones, with yogurt and possibly peanut butter.<br><br>
any ideas? anyone BTDT?
