What you can do, and it is a great deal, is set things up for your child so she, herself, can regulate her food intake as well as possible, and so she can develop a healthy body that is constitutionally right for her. Child of Mine provides information on all aspects of feeding, from pregnancy through the toddler years. Satter begins with historical and social perspectives on infant feeding, describing how formula was developed and discussing the social movement that lead to accepting a child's input into his or her own development. Nutrition during pregnancy, infant feeding, introducing solid foods, building positive eating relationships, and avoiding eating disorders are all discussed. But Not Too Much .
Children are responsible for how much or even whether they eat.
Early chapters describe basic feeding principals. Later sections focus on feeding problems, obesity, special needs children, and eating disorders. But Not Too Much may be the most sensible and accessible book on childhood feeding on the market. Nancy McHrbacher A reference book for the professional. All rights reserved.
