A quick one!!

My 18 month old is teething ( nasty pointy ones !) and is pretty much off everthing except scrambled egg, custard, some nibbles and scrambled eggs. He currently has 2 bottles a day 1 at wake up and one at bedtime. Do I just let him eat little and frequently and what he wants, I am worried about bad habits or do I keep trying and accept that if he is hungry he will eat???

Teething is awful especially those pointies!!!

Do what you can, my dd refuses everything, but a winner is bannana with formula milk.... It's awful but imagine your mouth was full of ulcers, food would be the last thing wouldn't it?

Hugs for you both

Ps, do NOT worry about bad habits, treat this like illness, offer food try and tempt and relax.

Lo will be eating like a horse when they pop

Thank you

He ate loads tonight, virtually an adult portion of risotto!! It must be so painful poor boy.
