Fantastic day for Jayden today, he has gone majorly fussy in the past few months and i really struggle getting variety into him!

Breakfast - strawberry porridge
Lunch - 2 potato cakes, a banana, few slices of apple & organix goodies
Dinner - homemade chicken curry with lemon cous cous (odd combo but i can't eat rice due to GD so thought i'd try him with cous cous

he ate a big plate of it, he always refuses anything other than spag bol or jacket potatos for dinner!! We couln't believe he even tried it let alone polished everything off!!!

Then had a jordans cereal bar

2 pieces of toast before bed

Is she getting enough milk and whole grains? We avoid juice because it has unnecessary sugar that is better gotten from actually fruits since it digests differently and has fiber. We always offer milk with meals and water if DS says he's thirsty.

She has 2/3 bottles of milk a day she has milk before naps and bedtime. Is that not enuf? My hv didnt say how much she shud b having, panicking now :s.

I'd ask your pediatrician about how much milk they recommend. Milk is a healthy habit to associate with meals at a young age since it's rich in calcium and protein. Be aware that milk straight before sleep can take it's toll on the teeth causing decay since the milk sugars have the chance to sit during sleep. Toast is great for grains and so is porridge. I'd just be very careful about the overall balance of sugar in the diet. Sugar-free juice is usually sweetened with something else. Not all artificial sweeteners are healthy and some are just bad for you (like aspartame).
