A few days of eating less
Teething, a cold, a hot day, or a growth pause can make a toddler eat less for a few days. Keep offering familiar food. Do not invent a new menu to tempt them.
Familiar, not a performance
If they are drinking very little, losing weight, or you are worried, talk to your child’s doctor. This page cannot tell you which one it is.
The same foods, small plates, you nearby. A new feast usually gets refused by a child who feels off.
Drinks
Offer drinks that fit their allergies. Milk stays off when milk is an allergy. Water still matters.
A few days of less food with ordinary energy is different from a child who is limp, very dry, or losing weight. The second one is a call to the doctor.
Do not test new food
A low-appetite week is a poor week to introduce three new foods. Keep the yes on the plate.
The app’s new-food week can wait until eating is ordinary again.
