I am REALLY struggling 😭

Honestly my daughter is exactly the same 😭 She’s never been the best eater either and she’s actually been poorly for the last few days, so since then she hasn’t really eaten much at all. It’s so stressful, especially when you’ve cooked something and they just refuse it 😭 Today I offered her LOADS of diff things, from chicken to flipping eggs! hummus to cucumber, cereal and even cookies, and she literally either said no or spat it out! She actually did the same thing with pizza the other day that you described, where she asked for it but then only ate the cheese, so I thought I’d try pizza again today and she wouldn’t even have that. Honestly though, if she’s eating something, even if it’s not necessarily the healthiest thing, I’d just let her have it for now. At least she’s eating something and hopefully

hopefully her appetite will gradually come back and she’ll get back to eating more normally. I’d try not to put too much pressure on her with meals either because I think that can make it even more stressful for both of you, oh and also You could also keep offering the foods she used to like alongside something new, even if she doesn’t eat the new food. Sometimes they suddenly decide they like something again out of nowhere. If it carries on though, I’d probably speak to her health visitor or GP just to make sure there isn’t anything else going on, especially as it started after she was poorly x

It is really upsetting when they don’t eat, my toddler is exactly the same, it could just be her body adjusting back from the sickness and hopefully she’ll be back to eating her safe foods however I got in touch with the health visitor last week with my concerns who has referred me onto a eating course, so maybe you could do the same and see if there’s anything in your local area which is similar
