Rachel teethed very late, and has only recently gotten about five upper and five lower teeth. Still no molars. Still I'm not sure this has anything to do with the fact that she will not take a single bite of real fruit. She will eat peas, broccoli, corn, and has tried a few other types of veggies. But not a single piece of fruit crosses her lips. However, she eats babyfood jars of apples, pears, bananas, etc., so I know it's not the taste. She also refuses to eat any meats (which she actually used to eat). Our meals consists of eggs, cereal, yogurt (with oatmeal mixed in), pasta with cheese sauce (I used whole wheat pasta and make the cheese sauce myself so I don't feel that it's junk food) and jars of carrots, peas, etc. or whole veggies. I am not really worried about her not getting the proper nutrition, in fact we had our 18 month visit on Friday and the doc said she's great. Still, I don't know what I'm supposed to do about this refusal of foods. I hate to waste foods, and that's what happens if I offer her slices of fruit and she throws it all over the place. Or make chicken, etc. and that ends up on the ceiling. Am I really just supposed to put something on her plate all the time? Cuz the minute she sees something she doesn't recognize, out it goes and usually this results in her refusal to eat anything at all. It's like she doesn't trust me to feed her anything good cuz I've tried to trick her. Any advice will be helpful though, thanks.
