[quote=Anonymous]I’d be worried about nutrition. She’s just eating starch, apples, and cheese. You need to get her to try different things. Maybe you could try getting her to drink things - even if they’re nutritionally worthless, at least it will open her to trying things (yogurt smoothies, fruit smoothies, even hot chocolate). Could you use starch and cheese as a base? Rice and cheese with some refried beans where the cheese is melted and gooey? Pasta with a cream sauce, maybe a little bacon? Chicken and waffles with syrup? How about a grilled cheese? You might try calling your pediatrician and just discussing the problem. (Don’t do it in front of your daughter if you think he’ll blow you off; you don’t want your daughter arguing that the doctor thinks it’s fine). If he doesn’t take your concerns seriously, you might want to look for another doctor. Seeing a nutritionist might be another option. Good luck![/quote]
