Well, maybe it is just funny to me. I have seen people on many message boards say that they are just giving their 2 cents when weighing in on a discussion. The funny thing is that if you say that on my lot, you really are...

goowter I guess it brings a whole new meaning to "a penny for your thoughts."

My wife is a little worried that our 15 mo. old daughter isn't eating enough. She is only 20 lbs and hasn't really gained weight in a while. Though she is getting longer. Anyway, we feed her pasta and meatballs, deli meat and...

goowter I like the idea of a food chart. Simple, but sounds very useful. That way my wife and I can stop asking each other, "Wait, what did we give her for lunch yesterday?" Thanks for the input.

goowter Good point about the grazing. My wife and I talked about it and we thought that maybe we are being silly to make her eat three meals at the table. If she is going to be so active we should just let her eat as she goes.

goowter We haven't tried slipping avocado on her, but that sounds like a good idea. We have tried slipping her stuff when she eats stuff she likes. It's really funny because she gives us a confused look like, "that bite was a little different." Man, she makes me...

goowter I agree with the copy/paste thing. I understand that they are trying to stop comment spam, but there are other uses that they are prohibiting. For example, if I were to type my comments in another program and then try to transfer it into the discussion box....

goowter Thanks for the list, a lot of good stuff there. We do try to give her most anything we eat, but she is really behind on the teeth thing. She didn't have any teeth until she was 12 mo. and now she only has three on the bottom and four on top. Darned if they...

goowter That is very creative. I am glad to hear she is doing well. I have also noticed that it is easier to feed her while she is distracted, like watching a movie. However, I don't want to instill a bad habit of eating in front of the tv.

goowter Hang in there ruby. From what I have heard on this discussion, as long as they are drinking (milk and juice) that they are probably fine. The only time to worry is if they are lethargic or lifeless. If that is the case, then you need to take him to the doctor....

goowter Wow, that's quite a list. Thanks for helping out with suggestions. She does like gold fishes ('cause they're so delicious), but we should probably try to give her some bananas and pears. We gave her bananas and sweet potatoes when she was younger, but for some...

goowter Thanks for your well wishes, we will most certainly ask the doctor again the next time we are in. However, the wonderful people on this board really helped me put it into perspective. Thanks again.

goowter We try to feed her what we are having. Some things she likes (i.e. french fries and ranch dressing) and other things she refuses. It sounds like we were a little hypersensitive (that's an oxymoron, but I'll leave it). Thanks for your insight. Oh, and yes that...
