What Did Your Toddler Eat Today? Part 7

[*Ali*]

so annoyed was told to stop feeding my Ds so much by a complete stranger!

Some people just can't help sticking their nose in! What made him/her say that?
Cadan is a little fatty! He weighs 21lbs9oz and is in size 18-24mo vests! He was born on the 50th percentile and now is around the 80th. The HV  said not to worry as he shot up just from BM for the first 6mo and has just continued now he's on solids as well. Like you said Alice, it's all good stuff. Does your LO still have BM or FF or is he all solids now?
Yesterday:
B: Musli with whole CM, refused my crumpets with butter and marmite
L: Cheese sandwich, cheerios, raisins, pot of fromage frais
D: Chicken casserole

[Mom to M&M]

Yesterday ended well - after my post he went on to have goldfish crackers for a snack and then sweet potato fries and a decent amount of miso glazed cod for dinner.

Today is hoping to be:

B: couple bites toasted bagel with peanut butter, small piece homemade granola bar
L: hopefully a turkey meatball and applesauce
S: probably strawberries and a piece of brioche
D: hopefully leftover veggie lasagna!

[*Ali*]

I was really disorganised today
B: Musli with whole CM, few bites of crumpets with butter and marmite
L: Cheese on toast
S: Cheerios and a raisin
D: Cottage pie

B has always been Big generally on the 95th percentile.
He weighed nearly 3.7 kgs at birth and is currently 12.5 kgs.
He's in size 1-2 clothes and big chubby cheeks. He was exclusively Bf From birth then weaned on to formula, he's having 300mls per day, he drains 2 x 150mls.
You guys knows what he eats! He is just never fed junk food or fast food ever!
I buy fresh and organic when possible and prune juice is only 15 mils at a time he's only allowed water or milk too.
 I think becuse I'm small makes him look bigger, if DH ever has him no one comments about his size?
Any way yesterday:

B 1 oatbix 1/2 mash banana, toast, prune juice, said 'no' to porridge  didn't want apple
S 1 muesli bar - (organic oats, rice puffs honey), water
L 2 slices bread with avocado and melted cheese, water, again said 'no' to my cooked tuna, avocado nori/ sushi rolls, water
S 1 apple snack. 1 yoghurt, water 1/2 cruscuit cracker
D spag bowl, water, prune juice bite of frozen yoghurt.

B - Beans on toast,  orange juice
D - Roast potatoes, chicken, brocailli, cauliflower, carrots, green beans, sweetcorn and peas
S - popcorn and youghert
T - noodles

Today:
B: Tropical fruit cereal, a prune
S: Cheerios
L: Cottage pie
D: Brocoli quiche, mashed potato, baked beans, one piece of beetroot then refused avocado. Strawberries and blueberries and the smallest bite of DH's almond cake.

B - French toast
L - veggies/hamburger soup, toast, grapes, yogurt
S - cheese, mini muffin, banana
S - more grapes, goldfish crackers
D - a few bites of Sheppard's pie, a bit of cheese, 1/2 toast with peanut butter.

yesterday's dinner was refused entirely (pasta with cream sauce, wouldn't even try a bite).  I then made a second dinner offering of pulled pork with bun (what I was having) - had a few bites.  The day before ate a good amount of fish, edemame, and fruit - so I feel like the dinner appetite is all over the place.  Same thing happened a week ago.  Still waiting for the first canine to bust through!  Never a problem with breakfast and lunch.

Yes, amazes me how DS can eat such differing amounts on different days. We are also teething again today.
Today:
B: Topical fruit cereal and some fresh pear
L: Ham, houmous, crusty bread, baked beans and fried egg. A pot of fromage frais.
D: Beefburger and sweetcorn

[Mom to M&M]

Teething plus a cold here too. And meat not going down too well. Today was:

B: strawberries, half a piece of raisin toast with butter
L: 1/4 banana, half homemade turkey patty (with carrots and zucchini), applesauce, small amount pinwheel pasta with cheese sauce
S: goldfish crackers
D: small amount asian tilapia burger, lots of sweet potato fries, half yogurt, teddy grahams

Hey girls, have missed a few days, but yesterday:-

B - Cheerios
S - 1/2 banana, breadsticks
L - Brioche roll, 2 yogurts
S - 1/2 banana, an apple
D - Chicken & chorizo stew, 2 yogurts

[Brock~Tahlia~Mummy]

B Oatbix with mash banana, buttered toast, prune juice handful honey rice puffs.
Said 'no' to French toast and 'no' bluberries
S 1 honey oat biscuit, water, baby chino
L Avocado, double cheese and tomato toastie, water
S mango fruit pot, water, yoghurt 'no' to seedless grapes.
D French creamy chicken, sweet potato and carrot mash, peas, bite of berry frozen yoghurt.

I'm having a really hard time with B and fresh fruit. Mash banana is his only fresh fruit ATM, he's fine with ready made /jar fruit pots/ mashes/ purées. Any Fresh fruit ideas girls?
We've tried apples, grapes, watermealon, peach,strawberries, blueberries, rockmealon, paw paw, mandarins and oranges basically all the fruit mentioned here and in baby food books etc. At least he'll eat vegies I guess?

Alice, have you tried dried fruit? Nathan enjoys raisins as well as dried cherries, raspberries, papaya, etc.

Still reading along, just too busy to post much these days...

[gogomama]

I would also like to follow along; get some ideas I will post yesterdays:

B- half Sweet potato pancake, grapes, cheese
S- More of the pancake
L- Spinach and cheese tarte, some dried apricots, some baguette
S- Smoothie with fermented milk and apples/mangos
D-2 slices salami, olives

Ollie's funny with fruit too, he wouldn't touch an apple for months but will now eat a whole one happily, he was into pears as well but wont have one at all now. He wont do grapes anymore and is on and off with raisins - bananas (and apples at the mo) are the only certainty these days. The only advice I have is to keep trying with things, also I think seeing his cousin eat an apple helped with that.

Friday:-
B - Cheerios
S - Not sure
L - peanut butter sandwich, 2 yogurts
S - not sure
D - left over chicken ad chorizo stew, bread, 2 yogurts

Saturday:-
B - rice crispies
S - banana
L - Scrambled egg on toast (happily had a few mouthfuls then refused the egg and ate a bit more toast), 2 yogurts
S - some rice pudding, carrot sticks
D - Cottage pie, 2 yogurts

I think you can class avocado and tomatoes as fruit. DS eats prune and dried apricots too. What about if you pureed the fruit and mixed it with his cereals? Veg is better to eat than fruit at his age I would say. He is more likely to start liking fruit later I think.
Today:
B: Porridge
D: Roast chicken, potato, sweet potato, spinach and carrot, tons of strawberries
S: Cheerios and a pot of fromage frais
