2 year old not sleeping and being fussy with food

Please can some help or say they are in a similar situation?!

my daughter has just turned 2 and for a few weeks before her birthday her sleep was interrupted , waking up at midnight and not going back to bed until 3. Now she’s so fussy with food , I’m worrying she’s not eating enough…

I feel like it’s the baby stage all over again. Any advice would be great!

What sort of things is she eating each day and which milk is she on @Cc201602?

Cc201602 · 04/02/2024 19:55

She’s on whole milk and she eats toast strawberries, hummus, cheese, chicken and sausages. Hardly any veg now she feeds herself.

Ok so if she's having whole milk, that's good as follow on and toddler milks can suppress appetite.

How much milk is she having roughly?

She’s having 2 bottles a day at 210mls. Thanks for taking the time to read this post!

I'd know one of the bottles off. She might protest but she only needs 300 ml a day and that includes milk used in things like cereal. Sounds like the extra milk may be filling her up.

Mine has just turned two this week and for the last few weeks we've been having disturbed nights where she's up crying. No temperature etc, a friend said the same about her little girl as well. Maybe it's a developmental thing 🤷‍♀️

Yeah you’re probably right. I think I just worry and work myself up to think there is something wrong when it’s normal for the changes they are going through…. I’m a single parent so don’t have someone here to chat to about it so nice to come on here and see what’s what x
