Today Chelsea had her 12 month check up. CHN was very happy with her progress.

Length under average, as is her weight..i wasnt worried..she has been like that every check up since birth.

Any ways the nurse asked how she was going eating wise and if i was still giving her milk. To which i replied yes she still has 3 bottles a day and eats pretty much what we eat for dinner.

Well the dinner comment went down well...but not the bottle one. I was told she shouldnt be having bottles anymore as she does not need them. When i said she refuses cows milk that was ok.

Apprently as long as she gets 3 serves of dairy a day then thats all i should be concerned about.

My problem is Chelsea will only eat yoghurt or custard. Hates cheese, hates milk (other then formula).

So what other dairy products can i give?

My other question is....Chelsea is a bit of a fuss pot with foods thru the day. She lives on vegemite sandwiches so it seems for lunch. Today i gave her noodles...which she spat back at me. So i gave her some left over spag bol and she loved it.

What else can i give her for lunches?

Fruit wise all she will eat is oranges and apples and watermelon.

Vegie wise only potato and pumpkin...sometimes carrot and beans/peas but must have gravy on it.

Im not to concerned on her food intake...she is gaining weight and very healthy....but it must be boring her with the same foods all the time.

Id prefer her to have what we eat so im not making 2 different meals all the time!

Im lucky i dont have a super fussy child like some poor mums....i feel for u! guys.
