Baby refused breakfast

They go through phases with it. It’s really important to not get anxious when it comes to food. If we’re anxious, they then pick that up & get anxious, when they’re anxious the brain cuts off the hunger feeling. Weaning is very up & down. You have to remember that we’re feeding them when we think they should eat; they might not be hungry, they might not feel like eating what we’ve offered. Kicking & crying is their way of communicating. 7 months is still very young too, it’s just getting used to foods at that stage. Don’t stress x

did she have a little skin reaction? my baby was fine with egg for a long time, now the last few times I've given it he quickly gets upset and I noticed a reaction a couple of times but also as the previous commenter says, sometimes he'll randomly hate something he loved before then the next day he'll be back on it - they're nothing if not unpredictable!

Don't worry and just let them have milk that day. You will go through phases all the time where they go off all food, one meal, a different meal, their favourite food, eating with cutlery, not eating with cutlery, only eating when distracted/with toy, not eating when distracted... My LO was super hit and miss until about 8/9 months, pretty consistent at 11/12 months but will still suddenly randomly refuse food. Really no biggie

@Ina this is really reassuring to hear as I’ve been worried about my daughter. I’ve just started my little one on BLW she’s 11 months old. We’re only a few days in, and our meals have been a hit and miss. She doesn’t finish her meals and she only has a few bites. I worry she’s not eating enough, as if I were to spoon feed her pureed/mashed food I know she would finish it.. what to do ..

My little one also has days like this, normally it's because she just wants to sleep/is going through a growth spurt 😊

What amelia said ⏫️ It could also be teething,

Thank you everyone!! She ate her lunch normally! I think she was tired this morning and grumpy as I had given her breakfast later than usual
