Hi hun, sorry your post got missed. How is A doing, any better now?
If ever C won't eat her meals it is always teeth related or she is about to be ill. Usually with teeth she will snack, I guess because it is less for her to get through and of course after a missed meal she is starving.

Putting this together with your posts about sleep issues I would def say there could be teething problems (literally!) - maybe he can handle a little snack now and then (when my wisdom tooth came in recently I found it sore chewing). I find that some days the boys preferred/prefer total pureed food, and other days really hard things to bite on. If it's the former, soup and smoothies are good. For the latter then breadsticks, rice cakes etc are good. Also giving Calpol a bit before his meal may help
Otherwise, if it is a longer-term issue then maybe he is filling up on snacks instead? If so, limit his food to his mealtimes and snack times, and distract him if he asks for food in between

I always found if my son was off everything plain greek yoghurt would go down ok. Stomach bugs, colds, teething, it was my fall back food of choice!

Ella's Kitchen brocolli, pear and peas was always M (and now O's) favourite - if all else failed they eat this!! Yup, even though M is 3 he still loves it!
