The Pediatrician said she is fine.
A child, does NOT have to eat, like an adult. And kids do not eat, like adults.
Kids, SHOULD eat, according to their body's cues. Hungry. Full. Eat when hungry. Stop when full.
THAT is what our Pediatrician said. Per my son. My son is also a "grazer." NOT the type that eats FULL plates of food at a time. He eats, according to his body's cues. The Pediatrician said he is eating, WELL.
My son, is tall and lanky. Just perfect. And per the Pediatrician.
All children, go through, natural changes in how much they eat. Even adults do. AND, just because someone eats, it does NOT mean, they have to gain weight, RIGHT then. A child, goes through, MANY growth phases. Their body shape now, is NOT the same, as an adult. Some are lanky. Some are not. Some are chubby. Some are not.
Children do not have to be, chunky or beefy or huge to be "healthy."
Do not just go by physical shape or size of a child.
Your Pediatrician said your daughter is fine. And that was just in February.
My Husband is tall and big.
I am not.
My kids have their own... height and size. Biologically. And they are both, just fine and healthy.
IF your child is being fed healthily, and not junk, then that is healthy.
It does not go according to a child's "size."
Your daughter is only 2.
Would you rather have her eat and eat and eat and get fat or unhealthy?
Overeating... itself, is unhealthy.
No matter what size a child or adult may be.
And, a big child, is NOT necessarily, more healthy, than a petite child or short child.
My kids are tall. Lanky.
One eats a ton. She is STILL lanky.
My other kid does not eat as much as her. But he is TALL and lanky and taller/bigger than some other kids in his class.
Eating amounts, per person, will not make them any smaller or bigger than the other.
But, if a person OVER eats, then that is not good, either way.
Why... do you want your daughter to just and only, gain weight, and why do you think she has to keep eating more?
That is not right.
The Pediatrician told you, in February, she is fine.
