Sleepy/cuddly 14 mo DS

My DS will play for a spell then come and sit with me for a while and be really quite drowsy like he could nod off. I've got a cold and cold related asthma so i can't run round with him too much at the moment and he has a bit of a cold too, but i'm quite sure this started before his cold (he also had MMR a week last friday (not neurotic tho, i'm not assuming it's that !))

I'm also concerned that he's not eating very well. He takes his breakfast well but at lunch he throws alot on the floor and at tea too, even if he doesn't eat much at lunch. I know at this age that's what they do but i'm wondering if the sporadic tiredness is because he's not getting enough vitamins or nutrition.

He would eat fruit all day everyday and mostly that's all he has for lunch. He's still a happy smiley baby/child who laughs and dances and sings and we've always been very cuddly with him. So i'm thinking perhaps it's just his personality and he's a cuddly boy.

Sorry to go on but the lack of food/tiredness thing is a little disconcerting. Am i worrying uneccessarily (spelt wrong) ?

Thanks very much

Ps he sleeps 12 hours at night and still has 2 naps in the day varying between 45 mins - 1.5 hours

If you are worried take him to the HV/docs to discuss your concerns. It will put your mind at ease if nothing else.
