Did your child used to eat everything, but now refuses?

Did your baby used to eat everything you gave them? Did you feel as though you were a super parent? That you were acing this parenting gig!? Then they got a bit older and pulled the rug out from under you... the broccoli and lentils that you were so proud of them loving, were now revolting!


At around 4 to 6 months old babies start putting everything in their mouths to help prepare them for starting solid food.


Once children become mobile, start walking, start exploring, there's a risk the day will wander over to a poisonous bush and eat the berries. So, mother nature kicks in to protect them with a new innate and In-built wariness around food.


So, although they are now refusing foods that they previously loved, it probably doesn't mean that they no longer like it. it's just a faze that will pass if we keep offering the same foods without pressure to eat it, make mealtimes fun, and show them how much we enjoy eating to.


Comment to let us know what foods your child started refusing after 1 that they used to love when they were younger!
