I've just posted this in another thread but having written it down I'm a bit more concerned now. 22mo DD has completely stopped eating this week. Started about Monday, when nursery said she ate hardly anything. Same on Tues.

Today she has had 2/3 of a croissant and nothing else. Yesterday she had 2 bites of toast and a yogurt. She is still drinking milk, which she always does but it's all she's having.

I am offering usual stuff but she's not interested, even in the stuff she usually loves. Is this a phase or would it worry you?

TIA

My DD went through this at about 23mo but the GP said it was a phase and not to worry as she was otherwise healthy. If she is hungry she will shout. But that is just my experience..

Perhaps she's coming down with something and has temporarily lost her appetite?

Thanks. It's possible but she's never been off her food for this long. OK well it seems like it's not particularly something to worry about at least which is good. I hate when they can't tell you what's up!
