My 18 month old wants to eat every hour it seems! I swore I would not be one of those parents constantly plying their child with snacks but she constantly says "eat" or "snack" and tries to get them herself. She still eats a lot at mealtimes. Her Dr did not seem concerned as she is 75% for weight and height...
I obviously don't want to not feed her if she's hungry, but I don't want her to snack all day out of boredom either. I mostly give her fruit to snack on. If I don't give her anything, it's a major meltdown (this happens multiple times per day).
So, is it possible to overfeed them at this age if it's mostly healthy foods?
