awww bless. Its natural to worry, specially as she's under weight, but if she's eating brekky and lunch-i wouldnt panic too much. Maybe she's bored with her evening meal? does she eat different things? Maybe make her lunch a little smaller? my 8 yr old has always been tiny..she was the same, loved lunch but loathed evening meals. I ended up giving her a meal for lunch and a snack for tea time. Now she's 8 she never stops eating! x
