@brufava: I posted this video a while back, but since we have new people here, I thought it would be valid to repost. These are some of the things I’ve done that have been working for us so far. I’ve always had a relaxed and laid-back approach when it comes to mealtime. I didn’t want to turn mealtime into a battle but rather a fun and enjoyable moment between us. I think that was the most significant factor that made a difference. We went through many phases where she didn’t want to eat, especially when sick, and obviously, there were exceptions. Being consistent has helped a lot. These are the family’s meals, and there aren’t many options at home. When we eat out, she can choose what she wants, and many times she chooses pasta, and that’s okay. She loves sweets, and occasionally we go to the ice cream shop or have some sweets at home in a place where she doesn’t have easy access. I think life is about balance! Another thing that I believe helps is not allowing too many snacks close to mealtime, and preferably snacks are fruits, yogurt, or smoothies. I’m Brazilian and grew up eating this way. There were no frozen foods or fast food, which made me grow up without being too selective. I ate what my parents ate, and there was no other option. I understand that there are many exceptions, and mothers do the best they can within their circumstances. A balanced diet has always been a goal for me as a mother, and my intention has always been to help new mothers by sharing the things that worked for us, not to become a standard for comparison for those who cannot or cannot achieve it. Please write in the comments if you have any questions, and I’ll be happy to try to help. #momcooking #momlife #toddlereats #pickytoddler #babyfood #cookingforbaby #blw #babyledweaning #babyledweaningideas
