Oh yes, joys of toddler eating habits...2 things
just keep offering other foods, one meal Cate is refusing everything, the next she will devour (and I have become strict about offering her only what I make, and if she doesn't want it (throws it on the floor) the meal is over.) That being said, I always ask her what she would like (I figure eventually she will tell me, although she is only 15 months old now
) And I usually make an effort to make her favorites for most meals, and offer new stuff ever other day or so.
second, maybe some teeth are coming in and it's too painful to eat some stuff? We go through that every few weeks, and at those times Cate will only eat soft foods, purees, yogurt, etc. Try tenderizing chicken/meat...even if you bake it...I think Cate gets wigged out by the texture of meat sometimes.
