Eating
Hi girls My son just turned 17 months and the last week he hasn’t been eating like he used to … and that worries a mom … he eats his breakfast like always always finishes everything . But when it comes to lunch and dinner I kinda struggle … I never did he is the type he would eat almost everything from his plate .. Is there such a thing that he is not eating the same because of the heat ?? It’s been soo hot in California not our usual weather.. I wonder if that affects kids appetite because he just wants to eat fruit and veggies but mostly fruit
Also I just bought him HINT brand water because I want him to drink more :-/ I wonder if you guys experienced anything similar

@Emily he has been having his molars but I have notice his k9 are peeked out already I’ll keep an eye
It's very common at this age. They go from constantly growing to more growth spurts. So they will tend to eat more or a lot less when they need it. It's also common to eat a lot at one meal and not so much the others. I wouldn't worry as stressful as it is.
My son is also 17 months and he does that from time to time. They are a lot like us during hot weather . Keep him hydrated and continue to offer food . As he grows sometimes he will eat nonstop and sometimes not so much
Thx girls Btw omg I’m dying this heat is melting me can’t sleep Gnite !

My 16 month old daughter has been acting similar. She has always been so good about eating her 3 meals a day. But right now she’s really only interested in eating breakfast and dinner, snacks and fruit. Her molars are coming in right now and I can tell she’s been having a lot of pain in her gums from it, so she’s been wanting to breastfeed more often than usual. Have you checked to see if his molars are coming in (if they haven’t already) ? That could contribute to it.
