DS has just turned two. Very healthy, 75th centile for weight and height, all perfect. Weaned well, slightly fussy period after he turned one, but then famously ate anything and everything and double portions of it - until he was about 22 months old.
Now he has even gone off his favourites... potatoes only if they come in chip shape, pasta only if they come in the right shapes. Refuses most lunches and teas at nursery (bar the dessert of course...) and at home is a bit on an off with everything... Will also definitely not try new things at the moment (although I have to admit that, given I work full time, I am stuck in a bit of a food rut and don't try new things all too often).
At the moment, he also doesn't drink anything in the morning... no milk, no water. He gets enough during the day though, and when we get home from nursery, he usually asks for water.
Altogether, he still has a reasonable diet. Eats lots of fruit, lots of fruit puree pouches, etc. and looks healthy.
Any ideas? Maybe it's just one of these things ("just a phase") and it will all get better soon. One lives in hope!
