Does your child hard to feed?

Hi wildflower. My first child, who is now 13 years old, was a very picky eater and it was so fustrating as a mother, to watch him refuse his breakfast, lunch and dinner, every eating time he would really play up and refuse his food, especially meat, and that was any meat. So I kept feeding him veges, coloured pasta and rice, custard and peaches, which was something, but what a struggle I had just to feed him. I tried alot of different ways to make his food look exciting lol, I would make faces with his mashed potatos and peas and then one day he surprised us all and ate meat, "a sausage" I was over the moon at this... Now he eats steak mince and sausages, thats all the meat he eats, so Im stoked with that, at least hes eating different foods now... It just took a little time to get him eating a variety of food, and he did it in his own time... Good luck with your niece...

When my daughter was born she was 3 weeks early and took to feeding slowly now she guzzles her food at 15 months and is not at all fussy she even likes spicy foods.
