13 month old has always hated meat - if yours did, when did it get better?
She also is sooo picky and doesnt like vegetables or lentils. I have to hide both in pasta.
When did it get better for you? I havent been able to stop formula because I am trying to keep anemia at bay. Thanks in advance!

4 years on and it's still a struggle š
At 13 months they only need 7mg of iron a day.
You can cook with bone broth.
My son loves manoosh and we have meat pizza every week.
There are other ways to get iron into the diet for example beans and spinach , pork and chicken, tofu.
My daughter is the same, she loves meat free sausages though and they have protein in them too

Kid got trampled at trampoline park
Sorry for the dramatic title but that is sort of what happened. My 3.5yo and I went to chuck e cheese a few hours ago. They have a little kid obstacle course and 3 trampolines. She was chasing some slightly older girls (7-9 just guessing) and I didnt see specifically what happened but they were all on the same jumping square and then my kid was crawling away crying. She told me they "boing boing, boing on my knee!"
I wasn't super upset since they were all kids and accidents happen and I dont think it was intentional. However I know what her dad would say about it. He would confront the little girls. I decided to just leave, we had been there a while anyways.
But now I think about it and I wonder if I should have talked to the girls about it. Like try to be careful next time or something?

Opinions! Caretaker transparancy
I noticed last week that one of the puppet books in a series my son has wasnāt anywhere (we often read a few at night before dinner, plus I just have an eye for detail). I casually asked the woman watching my child (heās <1 year) during the day if she had seen it around. She paused and then said that she had taken it the other day on the stroller walk because he gets fussy halfway into walk and paused for āstorytimeā in a parking lot to break up the walk, something I hadnāt been told but I guess new she did. She then said she noticed when they got back it wasnāt in stroller, that he either tossed it or it slid from bottom. She went back on roads that night after work to see if she could find it and couldnāt and allegedly āalready ordered another one.ā
My thing is I donāt care that the book was lost, but I do feel unsettled now that she didnāt tell me herself the day it happened, that she didnāt notice the book fell when they walk on neighborhood roads with cars, and that she likely wasnāt going to tell me and just replace it hoping I wouldnāt notice.
Things get lost, but if sheās hiding losing a small book, is she going to share bigger things that happen? Sheās been watching him several months and there are some negatives and some positives with her care, ups/downs, and I just feel uneasy now when I was trying to be positive since I had previously disclosed that trust and transparency were most important things to me with someone else watching him. I work remotely and sheās shared so far when heās bumped his head on something playing and such, so I thought she was trying to be open about their day. I also asked if maybe she should do a slightly shorter walk (30-35 min instead of 40 if he was getting fussy lately, but she said a hard no to that). Unbiased thoughts? Would you lose trust? Keep trying and disclose to her I feel uneasy she didnāt share this?

How do you cope??
I have 3 kids my youngest is 7. (So im out the baby stages) Im with my kids all day everyday. Im so tried of hearing these kids call my name or argue over any and everything. I have no village to step in when things get to be to much. I feel like I walk from room to room cleaning and telling them to stop. I just want 10-15 minutes to myself.
When you find yourself getting overwhelmed or out if touch,
