I found some high calorie whole milk yogurt -- there's yo-baby and some other brands, also greek yogurt has a lot of fat and calories -- I found a brand that has about 270 per container othewise, I'd add a dollop of cream to it.
Also, I know we're supposed to let them be independent and let them feed themselves, but I'd give DS a spoon, but would still shovel in the food myself as well.
And apparently he ate well for daycare. Peer pressure? Or maybe there were just calmer and more nonchalant that I was -- was probably less stressful for him. For the most part ate whatever the other kids were eating, though from time to time he'd go thru a phase where he wouldn't eat and then I WOULD send some pediasure.
Some days I swear the kid would just prefer having some ice cold water and carrot sticks for a meal. Sigh!
