Boys tend to need more protien in their diets and girls carbs....cant remeber where i read this...also remember something about breast milk being higher in protien when nursing a boy... ahhh wish i could remember where i got that from...

anway, in this house its true DS is horrid if he isnt getting enough protien, carbs just dont fill him up! I also brought dinner time to 4.30pm as the kids were filling up on afternoon tea and dinner became a battle. I also make yoghurt for sweets so they think that are getting a treat but its that protien hit before bed rather than sugar.
