My toddler will not eat

I don’t know what to do anymore 😭 For the last few days he is refusing to eat anything. Things he really likes he won’t have. He was sick but is better now but still won’t eat. Has this happened to anyone else?

Is anyone else's baby not interested in food?!!??

My little boy is almost 8 months old and is still not interested in food! My eldest loved food when we started weaning him, so this is new to me. I've found my youngest has a high gag reflex, so I'm not sure if that's what's put him off, but he barely eats anything 😭 Is anyone else experiencing this?? What are you…
