    Jill - you could try homemade chicken nugets. Cut thin slices of chicken breast. Coat in floor, then egg, then roll in a mixture of crushed up crisps (I use C&O) and bread crumbs. Put on a baking sheet (with parchment) and bung in the oven. They taste like crisps and toast but she'll be getting a bit of chicken and eggs. I use thicker chunks of chicken but you don't want to put her off - that's what mine are eating right now! Taste good hot or cold.

    I got DS2's room finished so that is all of upstairs done.

    Tomorrow I'll do the living room and family room if I have time.
    Thursday hoping to get back to IKEA - if DS is back at school
    Friday kitchen.

    I have 2 lots of the kids coursework to read over now and DS3 back from footie training in 15 so guess I should get a move on.

    I won;t give you advice, but can your GP or health visitor refer you to a nutritionist :confused: I know what you're going through - my DD ate very little as a youngster, and she's still very slim :o

    totally OT but 6yo DS has just asked me:
    "Mummy, was it Guy Fawkes' mother or father who married again ?":rotfl::rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    Did you find out the answer :confused: I need to know now :rotfl:
