Cenzo is a fun and active toddler. However it is quite a challenge to get him to eat. Especially dinner.
Sleepless nights
Cenzo was never the best sleeping baby. When he was young we had him swaddled in his bed. We made sure he wasn’t too cold or too hot. We did everything we could imagine to make him comfortable. He actually started sleeping really well. But then he started to wake up 2 or 3 times a night again. He wanted to nurse every time. This happened a few weeks ago. It was exhausting.
Hungry baby
Cenzo refuses to eat dinner. Sometimes he eats a few bites but it doesn’t come close to an amount that would fill him up. He loves macaroni but he can’t eat that every single day.
However when we gave him macaroni for two days and some snacks after and he slept like a baby. We can conclude that he was hungry but now hungry enough to eat dinner.
The confusing thing is that Cenzo does love to taste new flavours. He even tried some rocket yesterday. Ryan never tries anything he doesn’t know.
Right now we give him whatever is on the menu for that night but we make sure not to put him to sleep without having eaten enough. Of course it’s not the best solution but having everyone sleeping makes a lot of things easier during the day.
If somebody has got a magic idea how to get my toddler to eat dinner please let me know.
