My 10 month old DD has always had a good appetite. Although I didn't do pure BLW she never had purees, mainly self fed and was happy. 6 weeks ago she started nursery where they spoon feed her (which I do occassionally but not often). She seemed happy.
However over the past couple of weeks she has started to behave strangely at meal times. She shouts when put in her high chair. If we leave her to self feed she just plays about, or gets cross (unless it is toast with jam which she seems to know she will get if she makes enough fuss). If we try and feed her she grumbles and we can only get food in with alot of persuasion. It is worse in the evening when she is tired. Tonight she refused all attempts to feed her pasta and sauce (which she normally loves) and refused to self feed pasta or toast (I refused to give in and give her jam). As a result she has gone to bed with no food.
She is BF and still loves her milk.
Has anyone else had experience of a baby suddenly taking against meal times? Has anyone got any tips about how to make her enjoy food again?
