You are very brave (to have second baby). I wish I could be like you to get pregnant for the second time. Does any of you plan to send your child to nursery when they reach 2 years old???? My son is still eating congee. How about you all? Do you give them adult food? My son is very picky & can only sit still to finish his congee while watching video/cartoons. Therefore I can't train him to eat with us at the same table! Are your children feeding themselves yet?
Happy Mom:
My son is like that too, all the sudden he lost his appetite. He has a check up last sunday and I asked the doctor. She told me that his gum was all swollen probably he is teething. Is been a month already but the pediatrian said some kids might suffer for 2-3 mos until the teeth actually" come out".

My son used to eat whatever I cook for him but like I said he becomes very picky recently. He doesn't like the congee anymore, I have been giving him the regular rice and cook it a little bit with the soup and give him that. He likes the baby food more now, the doctor told me is because he doesn't want to chew now because of his swollen gum. She told me don't force him now as long as he is gaining weight. I tried to let him feed himself but he will play with the food and make a mess, I gave up. I guess I will wait till his appetite to come back then I will try again.
I have been giving my son vitamin and is a good idea to do this cause since he doesn't have a balance nutrition diet now. I know is fraustrated when the kids refused to eat. All you can do is patience.
