Hi everyone! My son just turned one and at his checkup he weighed in at 18 1/2 lbs! He is in the 12th percentile for weight. Doctor isnt concerned because he is on the shorter side and very very active as well as developing normally if not a bit ahead of his age group. However my entire family seems to think i dont feed him enough and im sure i do. He lets me know when he is full. He eats three solid meals a day. Three snacks. Five sippies of milk and still breastfeeds before a sleep. I admit i am a little bit paranoid about the things i feed him, he is my first child so im super concerned about choking and all that so i tend to be a little bit crazy about the foods i give. Anyways, here is what he ate today.
Breakfast: 1 pancake with homemade unsweetened applesauce on top, a sippy of milk, and half a individual portioned cup of yogurt.
Snack: 2 mum mum rice crackers and a bowl of rice krispies with milk
Breastfed at nap time
Lunch: 1/4 avocado diced. 1/2 piece of whole wheat toast with cream cheese cut into rediculously small pieces (like i said im crazy) a sippy of milk and a slice of honeydew melon diced.
Snack: sippy of milk and about 1/2 cup of watermelon
Breastfed at nap time
Dinner: one cup shepherds pie- ground moose meat, corn, mashed potatoes
And 1/3 cup cottage cheese with a sippy of milk
He will be having his third snack right before bed along with his bedtime breastfeed.
Also, does anyone know of healthy foods to feed to help him gain a bit of weight? Thanks in advance
