Re-examine the issue: My expectation for feeding at that age is 3-5 good feeding days a month & the rest nibbling or grazing.There interest also shifts to carbohydrates to sustain activity rather than protein to sustain growth. Feed at the table & be sure appetizing food is always available in a for they could sample. As long as the growth rate & activity level are normal, relax.Think balanced week not balanced meal.

Patience: Offer a variety of foods at each meal, but in small amounts. Some days, she may eat everything in sight; other days, hardly anything. Some days may be all vegetables, next day all meat, next day all breads/grains. This is normal. Offer healthy choices, but don't worry too much about exactly what she eats in each meal. If you are concerned, see your doctor to make sure she is growing well.
