    Question Off her food?

    Im wondering if anyone has experienced that their little one loses their appetite for solids at all and what could be the cause....

    V has been previously a keen eater but now doesnt even want old favourites and will fuss if I try to get her to eat.

    As far as I can tell she is not sick or showing signs of teething but can anyone sugest why she may be doing this?

    Thanks for reading..

    I was going to say teething...DD hasn't eaten much in the way of solids for almost the last week, but she's just had her two top teeth come through (the first one a couple of weeks ago and the second one a couple of days ago). Does she have any teeth yet? Or maybe she's just not that hungry...I wouldn't worry because at this age they get what they need from their milk and solids is really just for fun and to get used to food.

    If she doesn't want it don't push her, she'll start eating it again in her own time you just end up with food all over the floor otherwise Lol

    Off her food?

    For us it's the first sign of teething with dd2. She us just starting to talk now so today she said no and pushed away her food and milk telling me no. She was 9 months with her first teeth and it's hard to know what's happening. I agree whatever it is don't force it, try yoghurt or something cold.

    Hey natty
    DD still has days where she doesn't eat much at all. I worry, but really.. if she was hungry she would eat.
    She also has days where she eats like a horse! lol
    V is still getting bmilk, and our bubs are still very much that - bubs, so i wouldn't worry too much about it
