I manage what she gets more of, however - if plows through one thing on her plate, but hasn't touched the others, I don't give her more of the first thing until she has eaten some of the others. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815344 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:24:14 +0000 yellowbird 1815344@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Pumuckl: same!</p> <p>She can always have more meal food, but if it's a snack I cut her off. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815341 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:22:41 +0000 Smurfette 1815341@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Usually yes but if it a snack then no cause I don't want her to not eat dinner. Esp. since dinner is a battle to get her to eat anything other then carbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815327 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:15:26 +0000 Pumuckl 1815327@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends...<br /> If it's the appetizer then one portion is enough.<br /> If it's the main course and he is still hungry he can have more. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815323 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:13:16 +0000 NovBaby1112 1815323@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO eats so little that I would never cut her off if she wanted more of an actual meal. But I do cut her off for snacks and "appetizer" like things so she doesnt fill up for the actual meal. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815320 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:12:19 +0000 Adira 1815320@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It depends! Usually it's Xander wanting more crackers, so I don't give in since they have little to no nutritional value. Or if it's closer to a meal time, I don't want him to fill up on something else and then not eat his meats/veggies/etc. But if it's during a meal and he's still hungry, I'll give him another pouch or more carrots or whatever. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815316 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:10:40 +0000 lamariniere 1815316@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I let him. I feel like he knows when to stop and doesn't overeat, even for things like sweets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815314 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:10:21 +0000 Mamaof2 1815314@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! I figure if they are hungry they can eat!</p> <p>However in your situation if the yogurt was like an app and the meal was coming I would say no, breakfast will be ready in a few minutes! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815313 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:09:51 +0000 Mamasig 1815313@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yes. Is there a reason not to? My son is pretty good about determining when he is full. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-your-lo-wants-another-serving#post-1815310 Thu, 14 Aug 2014 08:08:01 +0000 mrsjyw 1815310@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>do you give it to them?</p> <p>The last couple of mornings, DS has been begging for more yogurt AFTER he finishes off a whole yogurt (adult single size) serving!</p> <p>He also drinks almond milk in the morning and has a waffle/sausage/fruit bfast soon thereafter! So I've "cut him off" after the one. </p>
