Hamish is 15 months and a big big boy but in a day he eats"
2 pieces of toast or 2 weetbix then a yogurts and a piece of fruit.
Cheese or fruit for morning tea
pasta or sanga or scrambled eggs for lunch
fruit or custard for arvo tea
what ever we are having for tea - he will eat a derert bowl full then has some fruit or cheese or what ever he didnt eat during the day
He will then proceed to eat off our plates after he is out of his high chair and then polish off his sister tea
He also has 200mls or cows milk first thing in the morning, before bed at lunch and before bed at night - then one or 2 bottles over night.
He has his sippy cup with water all day when ever he is after it.
Goodness, I don't think I even offer that much to Milly She eats when I eat, but not full meals to herself. Mostly just a bit of whatever I'm having, or a few grapes if I'm trying to lure her away from the fridge... She's still getting mostly breastmilk. It's only when I can't stop (or simply can't be bothered) to feed her that I give her solid, separate snacks through the day. At dinnertime, she gets a pretty fair amount of anything we're having. Sometimes she eats it all, most times a lot ends up on the floor and not much in her mouth.
Maybe I'm doing it wrong, maybe that's why she was underweight at her 12 month check?
