Sooo I’ve been having so much trouble getting my daughter to eat anything lately. Literally all she ate yesterday was a couple of bites of cake and a couple spoonfuls of taco meat. I offered EVERYTHING yesterday especially all of her favorites and she just wouldn’t eat it. Of course her pedi says that it’s normal for toddlers to go through this and even my consultant at the wic office said it’s fine but I drove myself crazy yesterday thinking she just had to be hungry. Went to Walmart and got some of these just to kind of ease my mind. Has anyone else had to resort to something like this cause their kid(s) just wouldn’t eat anything?

I gave my son pediasure for a while as a toddler to make sure he was getting enough calories and vitamins/minerals. Just be careful it doesn’t become a cycle of drinking her calories so she doesn’t eat, then she drinks more and isn’t hungry for solids again, etc.

My daughter doesn’t eat anything. She spits out all her meat she literally just like rice and potatoes. I add this cereal to her milk called nestum by nestle. It supposedly fills her up more .-.

I had to resort to these for myself haha. I've been drinking them for years because I have trouble with appetite and maintaining weight. They're delicious! My son loves them too.

@sarahbethk, yes! That’s my fear is that she’ll just start drinking and still not eat. I only give her one cup and then she gets some juice and water the rest of the day. I’m hoping her appetite comes back around soon!

@aimeesmommy, that’s how my daughter is! She just spits everything out or tells me no 😩 I’ll have to check into that as well!!

Personally, they have a ton of sugar and she may crave those and refuse foods more often. Maybe she has teeth coming in or more important things to do like play 😉😆

@aengs2, I should probably drink them cause I have appetite issues and I can’t gain any weight no matter what I do lol but my daughter loved hers this morning I was afraid it would taste too different to her and she wouldn’t drink it lol

@scidg3, yes! The sugar thing bothers me too but I didn’t know what else to try 😫 and she is trying to cut her canine teeth and of course playing is ALWAYS more important 🤣🤣🤣

I'd say give her time, try to go with the flow with her for a bit. Offer her foods in snack form.... For some reason when I say snack to my kids they eat it up but sitting down to meals is like a no go when they are in moods.

@caseyann19, I just had to have one right now because you made me crave it! I actually prefer to put the powder in a blender with milk, a banana, and ice (peanut butter and yogurt too depending on the flavor). It's so delicious! So maybe give that a try?
