Too Much?

I am wondering if it's possible for my
daughter to have too much fruit. She likes
it so well that I have to keep it out of
site until she eats something else, like
this morning she had eggs. She ate a
little of that, then she just sat there
like she was done. I washed up some
raspberries for her and she ate them as if
she was starved. We opened a container
last night, and she ate 1/2 of it (they
are 1/2 pint containers) for her snack.
Then she finished it this morning at
breakfast. But she seems to only want
fruit. We only buy fresh fruit, except for
some frozen mangoes. She doesn't drink
juice, she acts like she doesn't like it.
But when it comes to fruit, she eats it
all. We haven't found a fruit she won't
eat. She eats veggies sometimes, but I
don't think she gets enough. Any ideas? I
don't want her to feel hungry, that's why
I always give in and give her fruit after
I attempt to feed her a regular meal.
But is it possible for her to have too
much fruit?

a lot of fruit can sometime scause
diarrhea... its also not good because
fruits are loaded with natural sugars and
that can lead to childhood diabetes.
Limit her to maybe 2 servings a day.
hope i helped ^_^

Her bowel movements haven't ever been
loose...so far. And what about things like
avacado? I know they have loads of good
vitamins, and she loves those. They are
high in calorie too, but she's a growing
child and very active, so I'm not too
concerned there.
And yes, replies do help. Thanks

yeah, i'd still limit her. Everything in
moderation.
And avacados are good fats not bad fats.
Adrianna is such a beautiful baba! I wanna
see more pics of her!

Thank you .gen!!
Yeah, I'm gonna go ahead n' let her eat
fruit. I'll just cut back a bit. She loves
salad! We had a yummy chef salad tonight
at my parents house.
I'd much rather her eat fruit than junk
food.

Hey! I see nothing wrong with her eating
alot of fruit, it could be worse and she
not eat anything other than icecream,
chips and chocolate!!
Its also great that its fresh! You are
trying to feed her other things as well so
I see nothing wrong with it.
Good healthy girl!!

Alyvia likes grapes. I'll put a piece of
grape in her mouth, holding onto the skin,
and she'll gum the meat off the skin. She
makes her yummy noises when she does it!
I'm too paranoid to give her the skin,
though - .i'm scared she'll choke.
I've been craving fruit like a mofo
lately! I had a .fruit & .walnut salad
from .mc.d's yesterday. Mmm!
yay for .adriana for being a fruit lover!

.Oo.O, .Adriana loves grapes. I cut the
grapes up in about 12 pieces. I halve it,
then halve it again, then cut it in
3....if that makes sense. Adriana eats the
skin now. Have you tried to peel a grape?
LOL. She likes to make her mama work
