    Thanks Mrs P and Fleur.

    Fleur, I am going to try just putting meat on her plate, good idea! She will eat sausage and ham (though I don't often let her due to sodium and other preservatives), spag bog (as long as the mince is fine enough) and very very occasionally roast chicken. She is a bit of a grazer too, but we already account for that and she will carry around food with her as well as having snacks in the pram/car etc all the time.

    They didn't test her iron levels, he just looked at the whites of her eyes, and I also think he's a bit anti-extended breastfeeding which might have led him to that comment, not that it will make me stop! Idid buy a kids multi vit with iron but it made her so constipated that I stopped it after 2 days.

    The weight gain was huge, but to me that suggests that the reflux has been a big factor in her weight gain, and now it's under control she's able to gain weight properly. It's so hard to know whether her fussiness is due to being a toddler or other issues. I am so frustrated, trying to make sure she has a balanced diet, but also wanting to let her lead the way.
