Thanks seabee! My child sounds a lot like yours. You know, I don’t even know what she likes anymore. It really depends on her mood and just when I think I’ve figured her out she just changes again. She’ll eat rice .. sometimes. Not a fan of pasta, will eat roti sometimes. She’s just not a fan of food and only likes things like fries etc

Today she hasn’t eaten a thing!!! Can this be because of the bottle? Is she trying to tell us something? I don’t like this bhook hartal she’s on .. it’s making me frustrated. She seems so sad and weak. Won’t drink anything and just throws her sippy away if I try to give it to her. Made her waffles (which she usually loves) but she won’t eat it. Didn’t want toast, cereal bar .. I even tried giving her cookies .. She won’t eat anything!! I don’t wanna give in and give her the bottle but it just breaks my heart to see her this sad and I feel like a bad mom for not giving it to her

You are not a bad mom!!! Stick to your guns! She’s just being a normal toddler…pushing the boundries to get what she wants. Believe me, she’ll eat when she gets hungry enough! Just keep offering her food as normal, don’t act like it’s a big deal if she refuses…she will give in!

And yes, Pediasure is great…that’s how I trasitioned my eldest when I had to quit breastfeeding cold turkey at 14 months..he wouldn’t go near milk in a sippy cup! But a straw and regular glass worked!
