Mom of a 3 yr 7 m old boy2 years ago
Q.

Hi, My 17month old son usually has his dinner by 8 and sleeps by 9:30. Some days he keeps playing and sleeps by 11.i wanted to know if the gap after dinner exceeds 2 hrs, do I need to feed something again. He is breastfeeding and gets up to feed if hungry but my in laws were telling me that a child's stomach gets empty after 2 hrs so I need to give some sort of snack to him if he eats by 8 and is awake till 10 or beyond.

A. Keep giving your 17-month-old three balanced meals and two healthy snacks per day. Toddlers' portion sizes are about one-quarter of an adult's. For example, a serving of ground meat is only two tablespoons, a serving of pasta is four tablespoons, and a serving of fruit is ⅛ cup, and for veggies it's about 1 tablespoon.
