At wits end/ My toddler doesn't eat much?


I have a 15 month old and she doesn't eat much. She has cereal and milk in her bottle for breakfast, some yogurt or puree fruit for a snack before lunch. For lunch if I give her some pureed veggies and meat, she will have about 4 or 5 spoonfulls and won't eat anymore, so I end up giving her again milk and cereal and the same thing for supper. Its like she doesn't have an appetite and I don't know what to do. Should I see her doctor or does anyone have the same experience and know what to do?? Please help!

Answers:
Why do you puree everything? At 15 months she should be eating solid foods. Give her some crackers and cheese or some carrots...she's probably sick of runny vegetables!
One of my twins will eat just about anything you put in front of her, my other is extremely picky, he mainly likes chicken nuggets, fish sticks, mashed potatoes, french fries, pizza, cheese and crackers, and yougurt. He was always picky, I honetly don't know what to do about it either, but his doc doesn't seem concerned, he is right size for his age and will eat lots of what he likes, oh, almost forgot, he loves peanut butter sandwiches.
