So, my almost 3 year old is FINALLY getting her last set of molars in. She's always been on the late-ish side for teething, but it's been so long, I swear I forgot she is still missing teeth. This time, it's affecting her eating more - she takes a few bites, and then says her mouth hurts and doesn't want to eat anymore. Tonight, I made her mac and cheese with peas(her favorite) and she did eat it, although she said her mouth hurt several times during dinner. Any other ideas for meals I can give her that include soft foods? I guess I'm mostly concerned with protein because she's been refusing all meat. She's not picky except for spicy foods. Oh, and she had the flu a week ago, so I think she's tired of applesauce and chicken soup.
