Food refusal
Anyone else going through this? He absolutely loves breakfast foods like weetabix, yogurt, toast etc and of course snacky things like oat bars etc.
But the last two days my boy has refused to eat any actual meals for lunch and dinner. When he skipped lunch I assumed he would be hungry for dinner but last night he refused two different lots of dinner and some sandwiches and the stress levels were high.
In the end he went to bed with nothing and woke up and wanted breakfast foods again.
I know most things are a phase, but god it’s hard and stressful and I don’t know if I’m ever doing the right thing!

It’s all phases I think, lovely 🥰my LG can be the same. Hang in there xx
It drives me wild! So difficult!
I thought I was alone
Still going on. Basically he wants bread and nothing else. I don’t want him to starve! He has to eat at some point right?
My son’s been doing this for a couple of weeks! Suddenly lunches and dinners he was demolishing/having seconds of he now won’t touch. Hes a bit snotty too so I think it’s just a phase paired with a bit of illness. I just keep offering the same food and if all he eats is the cucumber and sweetcorn I’ll offer some milk before bed to try tie him over til morning but same as you, by breakfast he’s ready for his banana and cereal 🤣 hopefully it’ll pass soon it makes me so worried!

NHS says not to offer alternatives. It’ll be a phase. Try not to worry x
