My Baby Girl poor intake 😔

Question

Hmm how to say actually my daughter is no problem with food .she will eat everything but this time when her age is getting up bigger she started refuse to eat rice from my observation she prefer to eat jug food then rice so I started worry I scared she lost weight.one more thing she prefer to eat by herself okay understand they want to learn but sometimes I look she playing the food not eating so how to get full tummy so I have to take time feed her otherwise she didn’t get enough food.so Mom any of you experience the same thing like what happened to my daughter?? #Needadvice #Sharingdong_Bund #bantujawab

Ah mum, this is very common lah when they start growing and getting more independent! My girl also went through the same phase, suddenly reject rice, want to feed herself, play more than eat, the whole drama. I think at this age they're just exploring and asserting themselves, plus maybe junk food is more exciting to them than plain rice, so don't worry too much yet. But since you're concerned about her weight and intake, best to bring her to the doc for a check-up and weighing, they can tell you if she's actually losing or just being a picky toddler. In the meantime, a few of us mums tried mixing rice with things she enjoys (like mixing with the junk food she loves, or making it more interesting with sauce/veggies), and also just letting them self-feed even if messy because at least they eating, sometimes forcing feed actually backfire. How old is she now?
