ok, so not strictly weaning but DS is haveing a very frustrating period where he just doesn't want food.
Breakfast & dinner are usually ok but lunch is appalling, he just doesn't want anything I offer him. He's not filling up on snacks and only has milk in the morning and at night - what's happening, and any suggestions please!
I have tried offering him finger food, spoon food, leaving him to it, eating with him, different times, aaaah!

I always think its ok as long as ds eats 2 out of 3 meals. He normally has a good breakfast and lunch and then it is hit or miss as to whether he eats his dinner. Just offer lunch, he eats it (or doesnt!) and that is fine - he will then make up for it at dinner time. What do you offer at the moment? DS got sandwiches and fruit for lunch at that age (still does at 2.6 years)

Sandwiches, toast, beans on toast, pizza, you name it, I've tried it!
So long as he's not starving himself I should just relax I guess...hard tho!
