I just took the kids today! I’m pretty honest with the dr. Our pediatrician usually asks about if the kids eat fruits and veggies, then milk and protein. I tell her that the kids eat a variety of fruits and veggies, we don’t keep dairy in the house (outside the home is another story!), but use almond milk on cereal, and the kids eat lots of beans. Sometimes there is a follow up from the dr on the importance of whatever, and I just smile and nod. Today I got a talk about the imprtance if vitamin D, but it was brief and then we were on to the next topic.
I believe Jeff posted that when he’s asked about diet, he says that he eats lots of vegetables, fruits, whole grains and lean protein.
Depending on how old your kids are, you’ll only see the dr once a year for their well-child check-up, so it’s a pretty brief amount of time to just smile and nod.
