21m not eating- chewing then spitting food

My toddler has never been a big eater. She still prefers breastfeeding than food I think! Feeds throughout the night a lot still.

Anyway; gradually over the last two weeks she's started just chewing then spitting all food out?

I'm hoping it's just a phase but slightly worried as she hasn't a big appetite anyway.

She's fine with yogurts or fruit purée.

Could it be teething? It's quite frustrating 😅

It could be teething, have you tried a dose of Ibruprofen to see if things improve?

Have you thought of some gentle night weaning to see if that improves his appetite in the day as well?
