[quote=Anonymous]1) you can start your mandatory health food regime AFTER she is getting enough sleep 2) she is not getting enough sleep. Tell MB that she is not napping well when she waits too long togo down and that you would like to experiment for one week with putting her down for a morning nap a little early, waking her after 30 minutes and then putting her down at the same time as her brother 3) you say it like there are only two choices: tive in and tive junk food mid-tantrum or let her starve for 2 hours. I would have picked her up and calmed her, take. Both kids to another room to play for 15 minutes, then declared "It's snacktime! Let's head to the kitchen!" And served them each a handful of something she actually likes. And I say this as a nanny who serves almost exclusively homemade, healthy food to the 2 sets of twins I have nannied through that age. She is already exhausted! Don't also make her hungry![/quote]
