This kid eats, and eats, and eats. She wants her food, she wants my food, she wants Tessas food, she wants to eat dog hair. I dont know if she eats because shes hungry, although that would confuse me as she has an appetite like me but shes like miniature, or if she just eats because there is food in front of her.

As far as I can tell mine is never full. Sometimes he gets tired of eating and takes a break, but 10 minutes later he'll say he's hungry.

talk to your dr. they will know at her age what is appropriate. if she wont stop, she may just be eating because she likes it or is bored. neither is healthy for her. not all kids stop when they are full, just like not all adults stop eating when they are full. just because someone wants something, doesnt mean it is good for them to always have it, or in the quantities they want.
go talk to the pediatrician. they will know best.
usually ;P

odds are the kids just fine. they eat till they dont want to eat and they dont eat for compfort like older kids do. talk to your pediatrician for sure but I doubt you have much to worry about. prolly lining up to have a growth spurt.

I just let my kids eat until they aren't hungry.
Sometimes they don't want to eat, I never fore them to finish.

Same here.
If they are hungry, they will eat.
If they are not hungry, they won't.
Child obesity wasn't created by fatty foods. It was created by the "clean your plate" generation not adapting to larger portions.

It's really funny, one of my kids has been at 75% height/weight since birth. The other one has been at 50% height/25% weight. The "smaller" one can out eat the larger one three times over.
I don't expect that I'll have to worry about how much they are eating until they hit puberty.

I ate ALOT as a child. but I was also very active.
what stopped the hunger cravings for me was having a big glass of milk before and after meals.
I still do it to this day.
and it is satisfying and keeps me at a happy medium of the 'full feeling' but not overboard where i feel gluttonous.
and its a big money saver. I go through 4L of milk a week. and ~10 gallons of water a month.
and ill wait for sales for juices of my choice.
I like my fluids

I wish I'd had that problem with my kids, I was always trying to give them something to get them to eat. My daughter had bad food allergies that made it hurt when she ate, so that association was really difficult to break, and my son had major texture issues because of a Neurological disorder. With my son, at least after we figured out what textures he didn't like, he would eat some stuff, but I always worried that he wasn't getting enough variety.
Edit: but as I recall the common practice was to feed them until they started playing with the food more than eating it.

How old is she now?
E was a bottomless pit up until he turned 3.. Nonstop eating.. He would eat more than me.
Kid was growing like crazy though and very active. Now that he is a bit older nearly 4 his growth has kind of evened out (he has been in the same clothing size for 8 months now and has only gained about 5 pounds) and he doesnt eat nearly as much.
I would just make sure that you are feeding her healthy food, we tried to keep healthy foods for him to snack on like fruits and veggies. and talk to the doc if you are concerned

I out eat the really big guys at work all the time. It's become a running joke. Since I have gained muscle mass I am no longer 1/2 their size, but still a lot smaller than them.
