> Thanks everyone for the best advice. I stopped grazing and I’ve been eating with her. She’s eating a little better, but still refusing the spoon and only agreeing to finger foods. This morning’s “breakfast” was leftover pork roast (shredded), potatoes, green beans, and corn with a bit of gravy. Sam isn’t filling her tummy, but she’s eating a bit more and is less distractable if I’m eating with her. She isn’t slapping my hand away, and she’s trying to feed me, too, which is pretty cute.

Don’t you love little kids’ taste in meals? My daughter’s favorite breakfast was a plain pancake covered with steamed, chopped vegetables.

Speaking of, frozen chopped veggies (the ones with single kernels of corn, peas and tiny squares of carrot) are awesome finger foods.
