My youngest is 2yrs 9mo and has been going through the longest 'phase' of not eating much. I swear she thrives on just air!
We had a paed app yesterday (about something not connected) and her height and weight puts her below average. Height wise, both myself and her dad are short, so expected. But she's lost a couple of pounds over the last 4 months which drops her a percentile to the 0.9th for weight. (35 weeker, 4lb 6oz. Always been quite small anyway)
She's not a fussy eater really, just getting her to sit and eat is seemingly impossible!!
Any tips? Have you been through it? How did you get past it?
Is percentiles an issue at this age? Should I be more concerned about her losing weight, even though I believe it to be because she runs around all day and doesn't eat! Her paed didn't mention it, but I'm not sure if he saw the notes from the nurse at that point...
