What do I do when my child refuses to eat?

Question

All she wants to do is drink drink drink and not
Eat. She drinks her juice, water and milk. And that’s it. But will eat a couple bites and refuse the rest.

Answer

I’ve never given my daughter juice and I make sure to give her milk AFTER she eats so that she isn’t full before.

Answer

My daughter does it sometimes too. One day she over eats and the next nothing. My pediatrician said that it's normal for them to do so. I give my daughter vitamins on a daily so atleast its puts my mind at ease, somewhat lol. I would recommend making a smoothie for the days he or she doesn't eat since she likes to drink. You can sneak in all sorts of veggies with fruit and it will taste yummy.

Answer

I’m going through the same thing. My son only wants cow milk and my breastmilk. When I give him food, he plays with it, and it ends up on the floor. I started putting some vanilla pediasure power into his milk and he seems to like it. Today I will try to add a fruit and veg purée in the mixture. I don’t know what else to do

Answer

Mine struggles too. I don’t ever give her juice. Lately all she wants is mashed potatoes. She also usually eat fresh or freeze dried strawberries.
