My child doesn't eat

Hiya guys, my3 year old won't eat proper food and I don't know why or how to convince her to eat. If it's fruit I have no problem getting her to eat it but she won't eat anything substantial and I don't know what to do. I can see her ribs but I don't want drs to think I'm crazy she still plays and stuff but come 5pm she crashes but even if I eat with her she won't eat properly

Maybe sit some of her favorite Barbie’s, animals, etc in front of her and feed them a bite and her a bite. Or watch a show where kids her age are eating. Some ideas. :/ your doing good though I hear lots of moms say this

@Ashley yeah we have tried this but recently she says her stomach hurts every time after she's eaten

I also have a 3 year old daughter who has always been super fussy with food and will happily not eat anything. As bad as it sounds, I ended up offering her junk foods like crisps, ice creams, yoghurts and jellies thinking it would help expand her stomach and it worked! She still doesn’t eat properly but she’ll have some protein and carbs throughout the day which is better than nothing. She also complained of a belly ache but we have only just figured out that she’s trying to say she’s hungry and it’s the grumbling that makes her think it’s pain so we offer her more food or snacks that she enjoys 🙈 If you feel like you’ve tried everything and it’s just not working maybe speak to your doctor and express your concern, they may have some advice for you! Wishing you all the best! 😇

@Heran yeah like I offer her junk she just don't want owt
