Today was one of those days where I wanted to pull my hair out several times today. She just did not want to eat today! Every bite was a struggle.. and i'm too tired to figure out calories! I don't think I want to know today either..
Breakfast
1/4 banana
2 ounce yogurt (stonybrooke farms yogurt with veggie but u can't taste the veggie!)
Lunch
4 oz. butterscotch pudding (liked it!)
2 oz. yogurt
Dinner
2 ounces pears. done.
all day she drank 5 ounces of milk/carnation instant breakfast drink.
9:00 pm tube feed
whole milk and veggie
So that's what she actually ATE today.. Here's a list of what Bela was offered today:
Chicken (two different ways), pasta, spaghettios, peas, peaches, peanut butter, chocolate, goldfish, homemade sweet potatoes mashed, and 2 different baby foods I tried out, with no luck.
I NEED to get her drinking more fluid, or I need to pump some into her during the day, but I know that if I do, she won't even eat as much food as she is eating now! ho hum... not a great eating day. Thank goodness for a new day..
