Thought maybe some mom's or dad's could give me some ideas on what I can send to the daycare with my 14 month old that would be good for being on abx.

She has and like cottage cheese, sausage patties, and yogurt, need to get the plain though. I can cook some squash and take it out there, but what else can you think of?

That said, I would include applesause, peanut butter (as tolerated), lactaid or acidophilis milk or goat milk as tolerated. Also low sugar high bran cereal like cheerios in moderation.

At her young age, milk and its byproducts (like yogurt) are still considered a 'whole food' and provides most of the nutrients she needs. That will buy you some time until able to eat more grown up foods. If you are breastfeeding continue. If your doc has not put her on multi-vit she should be on one.

Add no sugar added applesause to the plain yogurt and other no sugar baby food fruit to make it taste better if she isn't eating it.

We are very lucky that our local grocery store carries organic meats.

We also make a lot of "smoothies" with plain yogurt and fresh fruit. The kids really like it. We freeze the fruit (strawberries, blue berries, etc.) and add them to the yogurt in a blender. So quick and delicious.

During the school year I would pack my girl's lunches. I would send them with rolled turkey breast, Mott's Unsweetened Granny Smith Applesause, carrot sticks, celery sticks, cheese sticks, fresh fruit, salads, things like that.

I know your little one may be too young to tackle salads and celery/carrot sticks, but you can always send her with green beans or peas (if she will eat them).

You can even make her a "smoothie" and put it in a Tupperware container packed with an ice pack.
