I would speak to your HV @sammy25xo. She should put in a referral to SaLT to make sure that there isn’t a physical cause for refusing food.

You might find the Birmingham Food Refusal Service helpful too.

Other things that might he helpful are getting her a Dental check up and giving her a multi-vitamin and mineral supplement each day.

Is she just 2 or nearer 2.5?
