Hello
My DD (16 months) has recently been ill, she had a flu virus thing. I thought she was on the mend. However, ever since this she has been refusing to eat, she will not sit in her high chair, she keeps hitting me, pinching, throwing, getting very angry and wont let me hold her. I have just put her to bed and I feel at the end of my tether because I tried to give her tea and she refused and threw it everywhere. I took her out of the high chair and sat her on the floor in the next room screaming her head off. I went in to see her a couple of minutes later to try and calm her and she kept slamming the door on me. Then she did this really weird thing and kept falling back head first, from a standing position and banging her head on the floor. Every time I picked her up and then put her down she did this. all the time screaming. In the end I just had to put her to bed with no tea. She is asleep now, but I feel just terrible. I am wondering why she is behaving like this?
I also feel really bad for my DS who is 3 he is having to watch this and is getting ignored whilst I am trying to deal with my DD. Has this sort of thing ever happened to anyone else?
