So my daughter always been a good eater but these last 2 weeks of she doesn’t want something she’ll blow raspberries so I can’t get it in the mouth.
Breakfast isn’t too bad she’ll have readybrek or wheatbix with or without purée.
But this is where she starts
Lunch she will eat a omelette well half ish or it has to be a snack plate which is normally yogurt, chopped strawberries, wafers, biscotti, fridge raiders, toast that kinda thing.
(Sometimes she won’t eat it all or refuse certain snacks on the snack plate)
She will NOT EAT anything I make her I’ve tried so many different things and foods she used to love
Dinner has to be a tin of baby food even when I’ve made food looks exactly like baby food she won’t eat it.
I could probably try with baby food for lunch so she’s having another proper meal but I think the exposure helps at lunchtime and then I’ve got a chance to give a fruit and dairy as well.
We are on 3 meals and 3 bottles (one after each meal)
11 months in a few days
Anyone else had thing or similar what do I do???

They make baby food hyper palatable by ensuring the sugar and acidity are just right, so babies can absolutely develop a preference, especially when something else is happening that is making them uncomfortable, like teething or illness.
We’ve just went through 2 days of specifically only fruit puree pouches being accepted by our LO and it was awful. I downright nearly cried when he nonchalantly picked up and ate a bit of egg at breakfast yesterday.
A few weeks ago, suddenly the only food he would actually eat had to be yellow or orange. I have a wild memory of him hysterical in the high chair when presented with a banana (which till then was an undisputed favourite, so much so that his first proper word was ‘nana), and stoping crying immediately when I gave him a piece of mango.
So I’ve got lots of solidarity and empathy.
My plan is to just keep trying and offering him a bit of everything so if he changes his mind, he can still have the option of different foods
