Begging for food, food not eat when it’s served

All week my son has been crying and pulling at my pants shouting eat while I make all 3 meals. The second he gets in his highchair he eats maybe 1 or two bites and nothing else. I make his favorite foods, I try new things, it doesn’t matter he doesn’t eat anything but baby snacks and his pouches. I know toddlers are known to not eat but it’s been like this all week, and the begging to eat is also so confusing. He barely even ate his blueberries today which is crazy! He already has all 16 teeth and I don’t feel second molars yet but I have a feeling they have to be the problem here. He got most of his teeth early.

My daughter has been the same way for the last two weeks. Over here surviving on crackers, fruit, cucumbers, pancakes, waffles and bars 😆

@Candice mine will only eat some fruit and sausage for breakfast and sometimes a cheese quesadilla. It’s so stressful and wasteful! Groceries cost $400 and I’m making 3 extra meals a day for no reason 😭 I eat his leftovers usually but I’m on a diet so I’m not supposed to 😭😭😭

Going through the same thing! It's been 3 weeks and she's 18 months. I've started adjusting meal times and just offering food all day. Her bed time is normally 8:30, I heated her plate up again at 8:15 and she ended up eating just about her whole plate. I'm wondering if time change has something to do with it too. She has all of her baby teeth in, but they say even when they come in they can still hurt.

My 18m has been doing this as well lately she constantly signs more and eat but when I give her the food she doesn’t eat it even with her favorites I’m just putting it on teething

@Kara yes!!! I swear his molars are probably still pushing up into place or something! Cuz he’s also randomly chewing on weird stuff like his wooden puzzle board lol

You got a wild snacker on the loose! He doesn’t want actual food mom! He wants snacks, god! 😂 I wouldn’t lose sleep over it just keep giving him his snacks when he asks for it Eventually he’s gonna realize oh I want to eat with everyone else , boom ya solved it. Until then just let him drive
