[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Kids Eat in Color and Feeding Littles both have tips on increasing calories for kids on Insta (like adding a layer of oil/butter/ghee to toast before adding other toppings).  And they also say snacking/grazing more actually leads to less weight gain.  Just make sure meals are all high calorie, and you aren't eating lots of healthy but low calorie fruits/veggies only.

But if still on growth chart, this may just be your kids body type.  [b]Sounds weird to me that pedi is all of a sudden concerned just because now 2.[/b]  Maybe get second opinion or referral to dietician to confirm?[/quote]

Yeah I mean she wasn't like alarmist about it. She just mentioned it and said to give her high calorie foods, said we could see a dietician if we want but didn't say we needed to.

I'm not the top poster, but based on your comment above, OP, at 2 some parents stop giving full fat dairy. I would think your ped was just saying that you should keep giving your kid high calorie/fat foods.[/quote]
