Hello!

I’ve given her food that I know she likes and that she has had in the past, just to try and get her to eat but she looks at it and scrunched her face up and starts screaming.
I’ve given her different foods.
at one stage I was continuesly making different type of patties because that’s all she would eat, I put lots of different veggies in it but because she got patties all the time she aventually screws her nose up just like everything else.
I’ve ran out of ideas and I hope it’s just a phase.

  • It’s quite normal for children to like something one day but dislike it the next, to refuse new foods, and to eat more or less from day to day. This all happens because fussy eating is part of children’s development. It’s a way of exploring their environment and asserting their independence.

    If your child doesn’t eat at the meal, offer a nutritious snack (no junk) a few hours later. If your child doesn’t eat the snack, offer food again at the next mealtime. A child will usually eat at the second meal. With this approach, you can help make sure your child won’t have problems with a poor diet.

    Make sure to keep the portions small, offer a good balance of foods, don’t force and accept when she rejects foods, but don’t prepare a special meal for her, let her join the family foods at mealtimes

    While picky eating is a normal phase for most toddlers, there’s definitely a time and place to call the doctor. Your pediatrician can rule out or diagnose possible underlying causes for your little one not eating, such as gastrointestinal disorders, swallowing problems, constipation, food sensitivities, or autism.
