"I need a snack! I'm staaaarving! I need a snack!" all day long. even if she just had one. maybe she's growing??
is this just my kid? what is with this?
-
Weirdly, she has mostly stopped snacks. She's just eating bigger meals. I did not do it on purpose or anything, but now she only asks for a snack a couple of times a week. Like I said, totally weird! I snack more than she does.
-
My daughter does this all morning and afternoon. It would drive me crazy but she has always been a snacker instead of a meal eater.
-
No, she definitely asks for snacks but I try not to offer them. Typically only 1x a day, after nap and before dinner.
-
Ugh, E always says she's hungry. Even immediately after meals. But sometimes, she's not! I offer her water, try to distract her or get her down for a nap because otherwise she will graze all day. And she eats nothing at meal time.
-
@sorrycharlie: mine says she is hungry when she eyes something that she wants. I will offer her something healthy and she will say, "no thanks, not hungry."

C could snack all day long, but I don't let her. We got into a bad habit with W when she was younger and she wouldn't eat her dinner. So, they get a small snack when we pick them up from daycare (that they provide) and then nothing until dinner.
-
No we have set snack times - mid-morning and mid-afternoon. So far, she hasn't asked for any snacks in between.
-
Nope. He only gets a snack after nap time.
-
olive begs for snacks but i don't give them to her unless she's had a full meal. my kids aren't good eaters even when i completely eliminate snacks so i try to limit them as much as possible.
-
Only when I was pregnant and relaxed every household policy about everything. Usually we have set meal and snack times. If LO is really asking for a snack at some other time, first we have some water, then I offer a raw veggie option.
-
All day long. And she'll tell me she doesn't want lunch or tea, just snacks, regardless of what I serve for each one. Drives me mad.
-
She asks for food all day "raisins? Grapes? Apple? Banana? Yogurt? Apple sauce? Candy fruit? (Which is what she calls fruit leather)" even while she's eating a meal I'm being asked for more things. She gets ones snack a day (after nap, before dinner) and then I have to tell her to wait until the next meal time

R loves snacks, but eats breakfast, lunch and dinner well too. So I let her have them most of the time!
