This is a copy of a blogpost from our personal blog, KnowingNorrah (http://knowingnorrah.blogspot.com). Since so many WHS moms have asked me about Norrah’s diet I thought this was an important post to put on the Wolf-Hirschhorn Blog too!
FYI: at most recent weigh-in our 20-month-old Norrah is 24+ pounds and 33 inches tall.
“To be honest, I have no idea what I did to get Norrah to become so chubby. I like to think that I did NOTHING at all and God just worked his wonders on this area of her development. I mean – I doubt that I did anything differently than the other hardcore, determined-beyond-reason WHS Mamas (and Dads) out there. But, for what it is worth (which may be just about NOTHING) I will start from the beginning:
Also throughout the day Norrah has been snacking on cheese curls, french fries, pretzels, cheese, Oreos, pickles, crackers, batter of various sorts from the bowls of her baking mommy and whatever else she can get her paws on. Plus, she loves to take sips of juice or milk from a cup and she goes wild for lollipops! The girl just LOVES to eat.

Lauren- amazing post. Thanks a million for sharing. This will be great information for many people.
We had a similar experience trying to keep food in Kendall. Vomiting 3-4 times/daily and we are still trying to figure it out as she is down to about once per week. I am surprised that after such a wild ride that Norrah is holding her weight so well.
What a commitment…
wow! your little gals diet sounds much like our Anthony’s diet, but he is five and it seems like once we get it down to a science he decides to change his mind and refuse to eat what he has jused loved for months. We are currently feeding him a little bit of powdered chicken or beef broth with about a cup of water microwaved for 30 seconds and then enough baby oatmeal or rice cereal to make it the texture he likes. He still likes yogurt and pediasure so not sure why he turned up his nose at the sweets in his cereal.
I am going to be a “copy-cat” 😉
I can relate to your story 🙂 My son started to get back on track once the paed recommended Pediasure twice a day. He’s now 5, very healthy and – such a relief – not as picky as he used to be when he started taking this supplement!
