My son doesn't eat much some days

My son will be turning 2 in September, some days he eats very well but other days he barely wants to eat. Is this normal? My first born didn’t go through this phase.

its pretty normal, i mean do you eat the same amount everyday?

As long as he’s eating something and not losing weight, I wouldn’t be worried about it.

My almost 3 year old is a fussy little thing when it comes to food, some days he eats from the momen5 he gets up til the time he goes to sleep, other days he lives off a single yogurt pouch and a banana the entire day… its pretty normal

My daughters the same somedays she won’t stop eating all day and some days she’ll eat one meal. I think it’s just part off growing.

he’s starting to find his independence. yes it’s very normal and he may turn into what my boy did- become soooo picky!
before 1 yo my boy would eat everything… after that he became the pickiest Lil stinker!

He’s probably getting this 2yr old molars. It’ll disrupt eating, sleep, mood, etc. Totally normal.
It’ll happen again between 5-6 and again around 12.
He’ll eat when he’s hungry.
Ask him if his mouth hurts. Motrin and cold/soft foods can help. :blue_heart:

Don’t worry to much about it. My momma always says children will eat when they are hungry.
