One year old won't eat food

My daughter is 13 months and won't eat. She either throws it down on the floor or just won't open her mouth. Everybody comments how small she is and it's really stressing me out. Made her wheetabix this morning and she refused to open her mouth, threw her banana on the floor and threw a croissant down. She won't take milk in the day. I'm still breastfeeding throughout the night. It's so so stressful. My older two sons was the complete opposite and wouldn't stop eating. What am I doing wrong?

Is she not eating at all?
If yes then you need to see the GP and ask for a referal to paedatric deititian and SALT.

Just taking milk over night was something my child with refux and CMPA did.

She will literally take one or two mouthfuls and then stop. Between 6-10 months she actually was great with taking to food and then just stopped.

I would see the GP and ask for those referals. Any signs of allergies?

Is she energetic and growing? Don't look at how much she eats each meal, but how much per week, keeping in mind how small her stomach is. Her growth will have slowed down from little baby to toddler stage too, so not as many calories needed.

No signs of allergies or anything. She's always been on the 50th centile since birth. I'm going to take her this week to get weighed and she what they suggest. She's very energetic and happy.

Sounds like she's doing fine then.
