She has it the right way around you know Leasha! Your not really meant to eat great big meals of a night, only thing is maybe offer more vegies like others have suggested in things she enjoys!
It also sounds to me that there is someone whispering in you & Shell's ears undermining your confidence / mummy instict. You know in your heart of hearts that you are not starving you gorgeous, might I add chubby baby girl! Time for some earplugs!
Bella is the same too and she is a few weeks younger than Jazz.... She will eat like a horse in the morning and take less and less as the day goes on. Come dinnertime I can pretty much forget it, she will only pick a few mouthfulls here and there. Just by reading other posts, sounds like the norm then.
pfft to those who says she is too weak to be waking up at night... are these the same people who said she should be sleeping through just a few months ago??? unfortunately people will always find something to criticise about.
I also think you have answered a lot of your own questions... she is happy and full of energy - if she wasn't eating enough she wouldn't be. I wouldn't be making her anything different for tea otherwise she might only ever eat honey toast for tea yk?
IMO while ever you are bf (and even if she isn't feeding as much everything becomes more concentrated) she is getting a lot of nutrients from that, so I don't believe you need to give her toddler milk.
Like other posters have suggested, if you are truly worried about her lack of vege intake so to speak that you might want to look at adding some veges into her lunch time meal or to an omelette in the morning etc...
