Food
I’m really stressing out that my 12 month old has gone off his food over the last 24 hours but he is teething. He is still having milk so should it be ok for now and try again tomorrow?

@Natalie how much formula would you say is a good amount to have?
I ebf so I genuinely don't know.
Hey, my little girl is nearly 14 months and has gone off her food too, I think it's teething and her jabs were last week, I've resorted back to baby food and puree ellas kitchen pouches which seems to be getting a bit of food in her tum x
So with toddlers they will often go on food strikes. It won't be the last time. It's helpful to think of their nutrition in terms of what they get for the week, rather than 24 hours - so one day they might not eat anything at all, but they make up for it the next day. As long as generally in the week, they're at least eating some food, a few days being off is fine.

It's definitely okay. When teething they have a toothache and most people don't feel like eating when their teeth hurt. Also at 12 months they get a lot of what they need from breastmilk or formula anyway
