Eatting

It’s just a phase! My little boy has just turned 19months and we’ve been having the same for thee last three weeks, it hasn’t helped that he’s been poorly too but now he’s better we’re still having trouble! I think it’s just toddlers exerting their independence and what they like and don’t like. Not that this helps lol 😂 but you’re not alone! Just persevere and try lots of different meals, that’s what we’ve been doing! Xx

Same boat as my 20 mos toddler. He won’t eat much apart from breastfeed snack on me and take bit sizes of inconsistent food bits 😄. Actually my 4 year old joined this past week . 😂😄

lol, if anything he’s started pushing plates away or throwing food on the floor if not interested.

Is she teething? Got an illness? X

@Alex not teething and fine in herself otherwise

You are doing everything right. It is probably a phase. Mine isn't eating much either. I have started making a grazing plate for her for during the day. Toddlers don't have a lot of control over their life, the only thing they can really control is how much and what they eat. So that is what they do. I follow a wonderful account on Facebook, called kids eat in colour. And one thing that stuck with me is.. your job is to decide what to put on the plate and the kids job is to decide how much of it they will eat. Everything else is out of your control. Stay strong mumma we are all in this boat together ❤️

Ours goes through this on and off, she’s poorly atm so is worse, she defo goes through phases where she’d rather just eat 10 snacks and no food

I'm so happy I've seen this post. I've been worried about my 19 month old not eating properly over the last couple of weeks.

My LO will turn 20mo th on 4th Jan and yes he is on and off food too. He is teething and might be the reason. I observed in the past it’s just for few days and they get back to routine . Just keep offering usual meals.
