As the title says really. My 16 mo DS used to have blueberries and raspberries every day, would eat broccoli, peas , sweetcorn.
Suddenly he's changed his mind and just throws it on the floor. It's stressful but I'm trying not to react.
Tonight I made potato bake, cheese risotto and veggie sausages. I gave DS some of each. Sausage straight on the floor, and wouldn't even have a lick of the others. So he didn't try any of it just refused it. (Also refused omelette at lunch so he had crackers with cheese spread instead as I knew he would eat that)
I haven't made him anything else tonight because I'm not sure whether I should be making alternatives or whether that will make it worse? The last 2 nights we've had the same issue and I end up offering him some yoghurt later just before bed (though last night he can't have been hungry cos he didn't even eat that)
What shall I do? Keep offering variety, or just give what he will eat every night even if it's the same stuff all the time? Bit of both?If he doesn't eat/try anything shall I make him something else? Tell me this will pass, he used to try everything
