Good tips! I actually have the opposite problem, Darcie will eat so much fruit and veg and leave everything else. Which is great for all the nutrients but you can’t really get full on broccoli 😂 she goes trough many different phases though! C

I spent weeks and weeks worrying about my little girls eating habits and trying to figure out how to get more fruit and veg into and less sugar and salt!
The best ways I found were playgroups- sounds silly but once Evie saw the other children around her eating all these foods that she was suddenly missing out on miraculously she wanted to eat them all too. Secondly was the picnic plates, I order a sectioned plate from Amazon it cost me all of £2.35 including P&P and Ive found by letting her just snack away at the fruit and veg at lunch or dinner time she is so much more inclined to eat it!
Just another one of those parent worries hey?!
Much Love

I imagine that can be quite stressful! I think a lot of people do grow out of being fussy as they get older, I’m sure you’re doing a great job!

I have two very fussy eaters who hardly eat a thing and am constantly worried that they don’t eat enough ‘healthy’ food. I’m just pleased when they like something I cook but I’ll keep trying to introduce new things!!
