Not eating lunch

[5 Little Monkeys]

I have an incredibly picky eater right now too. She's 2 now and has been with me for just about a year. She will rarely eat lunch and sometimes won't eat snack either. She eats yogurt, cheese, bread products, rice and most fruit. I try to have at least one thing that I know she'll eat at each sitting. She eats a lot of fruit though and at least 2-3x a month gets a diaper rash due to this. She is the tiniest little thing and just so stubborn! Lol. Getting her to try food is a nightmare!

I know it's easy to say "don't stress about it", we are in this business because we love kids after all and want to see them happy! However, I can honestly say that since I've started to not worry about it so much, it's gotten better! Mealtimes used to be chaotic because she'd cry when I asked her to try the food. Now, I give her a plate, she eats what she wants (if any!!) and when it's over, it's over. The food gets garbage and we move on to snack with a clean plate. Like someone previously said on here, it makes no difference if the food is in her tummy or in the garbage, so I keep that in mind now
