Aggghhhh!
I am a little frustrated these days. Mostly because I feel like I am not doing such a great job as a mom. I know that is a little harsh but that is how I feel sometimes. Right now I am having a heck of a time getting Nic to eat. And I feel like I am starving the poor thing, even though he seems perfectly content just to throw anything I give him on the floor or to the dog. He won't try anything new (he just pushes it around on his tray and makes faces) and pretty much eats only crackers, cheese (which lately has been ending up on the floor too), yogurt (because I feed it to him), applesauce, formula and cereal. I end up feeding him his baby food for meals because he won't touch anything else! So, basically I am blaming all of this on myself. Oh what to do? He is getting his two front teeth in now, so that could be part of the problem. Hopefully when they come in he will feel more like eating??!!

Yvonne,
Don't you dare beat yourself up. You did the same thing when you were that age. It may be his teeth or whatever. But don't worry about it.
You're a great mom and that's it.
Love ya,
Dad
What do you mean he's not eating. He's eating a picture of Grandma!
First of all, he is SO CUTE!
Second, don't blame yourself. I'm sure his little tummy is getting enough -- he'll eat when he's hungry. Right now, he's just exploring.
You're a great mom, but I know how you feel. It's hard not to blame yourself when things aren't going just how you think they should.
Thank you all for your kind words! I know it's just a phase and he will eventually eat like a normal kid. But it sure is stressy while it's happening.
