Y'all how do i get my 2 year old to eat? He literally eats frosted mini wheats (plain with no milk),…

have you tried fruits and veggies? my little brother is 3 and if i can't get him to eat anything he will eat fruit

Idk if you would do it but they way I was raised along how I do it towards my child is if you dont it what's in front of you then you get nothing at all and you can go to bed without nothing and it works even though mine judges every little food.

@boymamachronicles yep I've tried all fruits he wont touch them, he nibbles a banana for about 3 seconds then losses it and the only vegetables he will eat is potatoes

@dianne1211, maybe try making the food into things? i do that 😂 sounds weird but idk, makes eating fun.

@amelliaholmes1457 I've considered it but im afraid he'll just be like i don't care and lose a ton of weight. He weighs 26 pounds right now. He's extremely active and drinks plenty of fluids but its a hit and miss with food

@boymamachronicles I'm so going to try that!

@dianne1211 huh ok see if his pediatrician might know what to do I guess. But i hope and pray that your son will starting eating

@dianne1211, like cut the fruit into shapes, little chocolate chips can be eyes and pretzels can be ears lol the ideas are endless!

or maybe try those kid ensure shakes? i saw them in the baby aisle, idk if they're for 2yo but you can check!

@amelliaholmes1457 thank you i do too and we've talked to his pediatrician and she said she isn't too worried right now and that it may be a phase because of a new baby in the house but she told us to key trying and keep a close eye on him

@boymamachronicles definitely going to check have to run to the store later today anyways! Thank you!

@dianne1211 right ok yea true I agree it's just probably a faze that they go thru

@amelliaholmes1457 i hope so because this is freaking me out. Like he eats eggs but here lately he's been hardly wanting those as well

If him gaining weight becomes an issue or not getting enough vitamins then I'd try pediasure. My son had to be put on it for awhile when he refused to eat and he wasn't gaining weight like he should.

How about making smoothies or taking him out alone to do one on one things?

@roguemommyofjx3 we take him to the park every Monday and switch up between mom and dad so he gets to spend time with both of us just one on one

@roguemommyofjx3 i will try smoothies

@dianne1211 awww then I have no idea.😢 wish I could be more of a help.

@roguemommyofjx3 you've been amazing help thank you!

My daughter is like this too. We can get her to eat veggies and fruits really good and yogurt too she won’t really eat any meat right now. Hoping she grows out of it soon
