My DD is 13.5 months. She was weaned at 6 months, was an amazing eater and everything was great.....
...3 weeks ago she stopped letting us feed her and will only eat finger foods. Wouldn't be such an issue if I could get a balanced healthy diet down her! She still lets us feed her weetabix for breakfast and yoghurts etc but nothing else. The biggest problem is she won't eat home cooked versions of supermarket processed foods. She will eat birds eye fish fingers, but not homemade ones. She won't even eat fish on it's own only if it's from a frozen finger or frozen fish cake.
She is very picky with veg and will play with it, put it in her mouth, then spit it out. Fruit wise, can only get her to eat banana and ripe pear. I've made homemade meals for her and she refuses them all. I really don't want her to live on rubbish and be picky all her life.
She is at the stage where sometimes she can sleep through the night, but when she does wake, I'm worried it's because she's hungry!
Really struggling with what to do as I want her to eat, but don't want her only eating rubbish any suggestions at all would be greatly received.
