[quote=Anonymous]I would have a conversation about it with her. Realistically, if you’re already providing healthy foods, if she’s going to struggle with this it’s not something you’ll be able to fix by magically offering or not offering this or that or by saying or not saying just the right thing. Honestly the pediatricians have very little to offer you. I really think it’s partly parent-shaming. My pediatrician gives me the processed food speech about constipation, but we already have a pretty darn good diet. I don’t know if she thinks I’m taking her to McDonalds or what. So I would take some pressure off of yourself. It’s really easy for that pressure/guilt/shame to transfer on to your kid, even if to you it’s self-directed, if that makes any sense. [/quote]
