Sudden fussy eating

My 17 month old has always had 3 meals
A day and little snacks for the last 2 weeks she is refusing food. I am getting food down her in a fashion, letting her pick at things trying different foods etc but she's not eating the way she was. She is completely herself no changes in mood, health nothing. Anyone else experiencing this? Confused

Little children tend to eat very intuitively and perhaps she has just finished a growth spurt and doesn't need as much food at the moment. Or she may be coming down with a virus. My DD would tend to go off her food then a few days later she'd get ill and I'd realise ahhhhhh that's what it was.
