For ...Our Josie was similar but she was 16 months. For the first while she ate only yogurt, applesauce and pedilite with no milk or formula of any kind. Obviously we couldn’t let that go on very long so we encouraged her very strongly to just eat anything. At first we blamed it on a complete diet change since we truly didn't know what she was fed in Russia. We had a list but she acted like she had never seen most of the stuff on it. The only thing we knew was portage and she hates that. So for the longest time we went with the "she's just had a lot of changes" attitude but then I realized she had reflux. I had never noticed until one time when I watched a video I took of her. It was so obvious to me when I saw her on the video and I could actually see her struggle with it coming up. No wonder she wore 3-6 months clothes at 13 months! Later I was told it is very common with preemies. When we got that under control the eating is better. Now, she is still extremely picky which drives me nuts because I have never had a picky kid and said I never would but I'm learning to deal with it. There are some things like eggs that I know she will dry heave or throw up every time so I don't even try. She HATES all breakfast but we make her eat something. At 22 lbs. we just don't feel she can afford to skip meals. Hopefully it will get better eventually. It can be frustrating so Good Luck!!The Journey to our Daughterhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05432466859568265915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2652328700895806821.post-24614610060467369322012-02-23T20:14:34.835-06:002012-02-23T20:14:34.835-06:00Josie has mastered solids, but we are in the same ...Josie has mastered solids, but we are in the same boat with sippy cups. She just has no interest! She also has no interest in real food! She may carry Gerber tubs in her lunchbox. . .<br /><br />What are we going to do with these silly girls?<br /><br />LeslieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
