hi, this is my first post.
my dd has been sick a couple of days ago. she was just drinking water, eating toast etc to get her stomach to settle. now she's feeling better she's refusing pretty much all food. when she does take a bite she holds it in her mouth and chews it for ages. i'm getting quite anxious about it. she's always been a bad picky eater and the last year she's come very far. she's a good height and weight and she's developing well. i don't really know what to do about getting rid of her fear of being sick again or how to stop myself from freaking out when she refuses to eat. we had this problem a few months ago when she was poorly but it's worse this time. i'm keeping a food diary. she's drinking enough and the little bits she had to eat the last couple of days are 'good' foods (fruit & veg, dairy and wholegrain foods). am i needlessly worrying? how can i stop being so anxious about her not eating?
