What did your toddler have to eat today?

[terrri86]

Grace has toast and porrridgem toast is normally the base of breakfast. Im a little confused as to what you mean by the overall level of sugar in her diet? Fruit contains natural sugars and i wasnt aware that her other foods were loaded with sugar. I try my best to give her a healthy and varied diet, the only thing my health visitor has sed about milk is to wean her down to couplr of bottles and food will be replacing the nutrition she wud have gotten from the milk. Grace brushes her teeth twice a day, including before bedtime. I am a little shocked that you think graces diet is overloaded with sugar when i always make sure she has sumthin with vegetables for dinner, i.e chicken, fish, gammon etc. I dnt allow her to have more than one sweet thing a day (parties and special occasions are different) she always has either toast and fruit or weetabix/porridge for breakfast. Ok i didnt know sugar free squash wasnt good for her and i will rectify that from now on.

TBH looking at what your lO has its very similar to mine! we dont deny her anything if she has the odd bit of chocolate or cake im not bothered as she prefers fruit and veg to anything else, everything in moderation is what i say!!
i give LO juice sometimes too but i give her the juice with sugar in because the no added sugar ones have artificial sweetners in so would rather she had "real sugar" iyswim!
