    Question 14 month old not eating - teeth?

    DD is 14 months old - nearly 15 months. She is usually a very very good eater, but for the last week has not been eting much at all. Her left top & bottom molar are both just poking through (she has the ones on the right side) so maybe thats why?

    She is only having her milk (cows) in the morning and night and some cheese a yogurt and a few bits and pieces through the day. She usually eats some of what we are having for tea.

    She is still drinking pleanty of water.

    Her sleep has turned to poo -and im getting stressed!!

    Just teeth??

    Could be teething.... that's good she's still drinking lots of water and milk.

    See the health nurse perhaps just to chat about a few things? Might put your mind at ease.

    My DD doesn't eat much most days!! So when she's ill or teething or just 'having an off day' she hardly eats a thing!

    Don't worry you are not alone with the 'lack of sleep' i hear ya..... DD's sleep has been off ever since her first teeth came in! Although in saying that the last week has been heaps better!!

    Thanks Ren.
    Bella eats like a champ most days -bottle, breaky, snack, lunch, snack, tea and snack then milk - so I know she is off when she eats like a sparrow!
    I think its just teeth - and getting 2 molars at one time is cruel!!
    I hope it improves as its so stressfull!!

    I'm having the same issues with my DS. He is 15 months and is getting two bottom molars. Eating and sleeping are not happening much at the moment! But I know it's definitely teething with him as he has been the same with other teeth. These teeth are taking longer though!! Poor little things must be sore

    Same here Kate!! DD usually eats a lot but has been a bit off her food lately. Two big lumps where her bottom molars are coming through too.

    Thanks Ladies!

    Ren - yes yes it shall!!

    Melsa - yeah I think that they must be quite Ouchy poor bubs!

    Heaven - yep sounds like molars! At least DD's have brocken through - but still only the points at the edges are through..they are so big!
