How much do you toddlers eat?

I feel like my son eats a lot but he's my first and I have no experience other than him so nothing to compare him to! Just out of curiosity, I have no concerns about him. He has 3 meals, 2 snacks and 2 6oz bottles of milk a day. He has demolished this and half a nectarine for dinner. Does that seem like a lot?

I think it’s a lot compared to others but some are just hungry. My daughter who’s my second and my October baby. She eats a ton. My son who’s 3 in March still eats a lot but not meals. He loves snacks haha. She loves meals.

That seems normal! My daughter wouldn't even eat half of this it's always 4 or 5 bites maximum of any meal and then has 7oz milk at nap time and same at bedtime xx

My son eats a lot too, probably 3/4 of your plate, also 3 meals a day & 2 snacks, he's breastfed so i don't know about oz xx

Lovely appetite 😋 My boy is similar. His older sister is refusing everything, which is heartbreaking for me, but he happily eats his and hers if it's left.

Same here. My little girl has 3 meals (sometimes 4 on nursery days!), 1 or 2 snacks a day, 2 5oz bottles and a breast feed in the morning. I sometimes worry she eats too much but she seems very happy. I see many posts about parents saying their babies don't eat much so It's reassuring to read here that she's not the only one!

I'm glad my son is not the only bottomless pit 😂 he is very active so I guess he burns it all off! My younger brother has always had a very limited diet and my husband is a fussy eater so I'm so so glad my son loves his food and hope it stays that way
