[quote=Anonymous]I have an underweight 18 month old. He does have trouble recognizing hunger and eating to fullness and we are working on that with schedule changes but an additional challenge is that he is go go go go. He is prototypical of the profile for kids that actually do under eat, despite the adage that they'll eat when they are hunger. Very revved up and filled with energy and emotion that makes settling down for meal time hard. I'm wondering if anyone with a similar child found ways to relax and calm the child so that mealtime and sitting long enough to eat a decent amount was more comfortable. He'll eat a few bites and start asking for UP UP UP. Unfortunately he is a bit language delayed so reasoning and explaining are out. Thanks! [/quote]
