Baby-poll poll Food strike!: Do u have days when yr LO doesn`t want to eat for days or just nibble? Gosh my son used to be such a good eater but since over a week now all he wants are fruits or yogurt. And he takes a few bites of his food and just plain refuses to eat anymore. Well he`s teething, first molars but teething has never affected his appetite before. Do u get frustrated and is this food strike normal?

YES My son goes through these phases constantly and he is little. When he does, I withhold drink until after he has eaten. I also abandon water and make sure he drinks neosure, whole milk and juice. This way I know he`s getting calories and nutrition.

I sure hope this phase passes soon coz am worried about his weight and that he`s not eating enough. He`s bony and i can see his vertebrae lol, he is very active tho and totally ok with not eating. Ughh I just get obsessed over his food intake.

My son is 8months old and we are going through the same thing - he will take a few bites and decide he doesnt want anymore - but he is fine with eating custrad, yoghurts and fruit...also he doesnt like mashed food anymore - he is SO OVER IT! so we have been giving him table food for the past week and he seems to be enjoying it!

My son is 18 months old and goes through non-eating phases all the time. He has never been a big eater, but he always eats enough to be OK. He does still drink 2 servings of formula a day though.

  1. OMG, I posted on FB (in reponse to a suggestion made to me on From Our House To Yours) that I didn`t like a business because the items were very expensive and my friend got a bad deal there and the owner is threatening to sue me! Have you ever heard of such a thing? I actually paid a consultation fee and my lawyer told me that she was `absurd with possible mental health problems.` I am protected by the fisrt ammendment to express my honest opinions freely where I choose, but he said she can take it to court(because people can TRY to sue over anything) anyway and that it might cost me legal bills. We will both be out a lot of money because she couldn`t possibly win. Can you believe that? FML! First my records and now this! I hope my baby isn`t a bad luck baby. I see people not recommending or recommending businesses all the time on FB!
  2. Is SaraKelly still on here? I know she was a mod but I didn`t see her post in the previous Who Is A Mod poll...
  3. ANGRY!!!! My jenakers account is missing my ENTIRE journal from my high risk pregnancy and my letthisonestick account for my 7 month old is completely gone along with my journal. I AM SICK OVER IT!
  4. I`ve re-thought the moderating of the member-postings. How does this sound? Let`s change it to usage, rather than length of time as a member. Say your first 10 or 20 polls, questions and pictures need to be approved by a Mod or something like that. Someone posting the racist polls and adding the kiddie porn is unlikely to participate as a normal member. Once you are verified as a regular member you`re no longer monitored.
  5. How long did it take you to get pregnant after you got your IUD (Mirena) out?
  6. Twilight valentines for 7 year olds... appropriate or not? DD received a valentine with a very... sultry smoldery Edward on the front and I was just kind of surprised that anyone would buy those for 7 year olds? I know I`m on the conservative side in general on those kinds of things, but this really surprised me!
  7. My daughter is almost 5 months and 3 weeks ago my hair started falling out. I know it`s normal but how long did it last for you?
  8. With all the issues going on with the site maybe we need an updated list on Mods. Obviously Laura is the one to go to but if there is a concern and it needs immediate attention and a Mod is online it may be good to know who is who so you can reach out to them. Mods, can you please post here so we know who you are. (Esp since some profiles names had to be changed because of recent log on issues)
  9. Anyone wanna try http://parentspuzzlepieces.spruz.com/ a free community site I just made? Let me know if you want the password and would want to help add things to it!!
  10. I think with all the posting issues IAP needs to appoint someone to verify all pictures, polls, questions, etc that are posted by new members. Sure, it`ll probably make things slower, but something needs to be done! Many websites have this installed and IAP needs it as well. Members that have been on the site for a certain time can be exempt, but if you are a new member, posts should be monitored. I`m going to copy this suggestoin to Laura and if you agree you should too!! :)
