Diet Plan for 19 Month 3 Week Old Toddler
Introduction:
Did your little one like the dishes in last week’s plan? You may have noticed that he does not consistently eat the same amount of food per meal, and may eat a lot of food in one sitting, and hardly anything at the next. Don’t worry, as this is quite normal. Toddlers have small stomachs, and cannot pack as much food at a time, as we expect. At this age, judge your toddler’s health by how active she is during the day, rather than the portions of her meals. As long as she sleeps and grows as normal, you can be assured all is well. The meal plan ensures that your child eats something at regular intervals throughout the day, so small portions of food will sustain her. Let’s look at week three of your 19-month-old’s meal plan.
