As bad as it sounds be persistent some days my daughter goes through days where she eats more than others my eldest daughter was extremely picky until quite recently just keep offering and eventually they will eat something even if it’s something small

@Katie she has a couple bites but other than that doesn’t eat anything

My little boy is the same. I try to keep in mind that their stomach is the size of their little fist, and it’s more about how much they eat over the week instead of per day. Some days he will eat well and then it goes right down for the next few days. He does tell me when he’s hungry though so that is handy. All we can do is provide the food, it’s their job to eat it (even though it’s super frustrating 🫠)

@Nikki-Lee having kids isn’t for the weak right haha ugh 😩

Does she like yoghurt like petit filous, I have to give lots of yogurt on the side for my little boy except dinner, I'm just waiting for the moment he decides to decline this🤣, I give treats like these Peppa pig mini cookies and they are not sweet from Iceland, as well as fruit but dinner time he sits with us to eat and ohhh he did eat his broccoli last night as he wanted to show how good he was to dad 😆. Yes but definitely bad days as well as good and throw major teething into it too, so sometime I give bonjela before food too otherwise he's reluctant to open his mouth for food!

Do they drink a lot of milk? Could be the reason for less appetite. My son is so busy sometimes we just take bites here and there during play time. Not ideal but better than a meal time drama.

@Michelle she loves her yoghurt won’t eat fruit or veg throws it on the floor she eats mash and that’s it 😂I beg and she just throws her spoon at me

@Becca I was giving her milk before when she wouldn’t eat but I realised maybe that’s why she would so I don’t now but still no change

A coupe of bites is better than nothing at all my eldest daughter wouldn’t eat whole meals sometimes

Mines exactly the same, only foods she will eat is beige food basically, she’s diary free as well which makes it even harder. X
