Has anyone else’s little one lost interest in solids after being ill?

That’s reassuring to know that it is normal! How long was he off his food for? Our baby girl is the same, just surviving on toast and milk at the moment and all of the stuff she used to like she just doesn’t seem interested in, she tries it and then just turns away.
Yes! This has happened every time my little one has been sick. He will be on milk and a few other select food. It normally lasted a couple of weeks and then within a month, back to normal
What is it with toast?? Mine is the same age and has been so upset and down with solids but toast is the only constant 🤣
My little one was exactly the same and actually a big sign to us that he wasn’t feeling himself as he used to eat so much food and would eat anything. When he was ill, he wouldn’t even eat his favourite foods like roasties or yoghurt, all he would have is a bit of toast and his milk. When he started getting better, he did turn VERY fussy with food, only eating beige foods and not a lot of it! But now he’s back to himself and eating me out of house and home. It took us about 3 weeks to get back to normal once he’s recovered x
@Sarah toast seems to be the winner 🤣
@Charlotte it’s good to know it seems to be pretty normal and your little one is back to normal now, I just get so worried as she was such a good eater before. It’s so hard to tell sometimes when they’re so young and can’t tell us what they’re feeling because unless mine is actually throwing up or unwell with a cold, she’s full of beans but she’s obviously still not feeling quite herself if she’s not eating properly x
Same happened with us! He’s just started again, felt like he was surviving on milk, buttered toast and baby biscuits for ages! Health visitor said it’s normal!
