Oh SecondAve, I'm with ya! I have a little girl who only eats about 5 veggies but I keep trying to introduce interesting new ways to talk her into eating. She ate small raw brocolli florets for me last month because I told her she had to eat the whole forest. Her Mom was impressed!

My new baby girl hates fruit, all fruit! I serve fruit with every meal so I'm fumbling around trying to adjust but it takes some practice and you figure it all out. The most difficult time I had was with a little boy who wouldn't eat combined foods and now I'm out of practice with making nice simple dishes like a Shepherd's pie or chili!

With every new dc child comes new challenges. I have a 14 month old on a bottle still and I don't mind. I think it's completely up to the parents to decide when their child finishes the bottle.
