Give her some cookies or chips to eat. Kids love that stuff and then maybe ice cream as well. Got to make sure she eats or else she may be growth delayed. Good luck

Have you checked on tongue tie? Serious question.

Get rid of bottles. She is two.

Don’t give in. They eat what you provide or they don’t eat at all. Children have been exploiting parents since the mid 1970’s. Don’t become a statistic. They eat chicken and broccoli or face starvation.

Only give her milk at meals

Cut out the bottles, she’s 2 and should be on a cup. Give her a cup of milk at each meal at the table.

Mine is about to turn 9 and she still takes 2 bites and says I’m done

Don't feed it for 36 hours and then try again.

She drinks a bottle of regular milk, not formula, after waking up, before her nap, and before bed.
Oh, she’s a milk baby. I had one of those. Doc told us to switch to water. That didn’t work either and now she doesn’t like milk.
Good luck!

Don't take advice from the OT on this, talk to her Dr about it. As long as growing/gaining weight within the "chart," she will probably be fine.
I have a 21 year old who still won't eat, he is underweight, turns out he likely has some stomach issues (celiac, etc). He ate well until 2/3/4ish years old, then stopped. We went by the "he'll eat then he's hungry," mindset, even forced him to eat. None of it worked.

Any advice on getting a 2 year old to eat?
How long has she seen doing this? She may just have a sore throat.

This is the way I was/am. At one point, my parents put on some type of appetite boosting prescription. It’s not like they were starving me, but I want ever hungry. Didn’t snack a lot, was never without energy. I was always a little under the average weight but nothing crazy.

Agree with the others to wean her off bottles. I’m surprised her doctor hasn’t suggested it. She’s drinking a lot of her calories, and it’s not good for her teeth.
That said, as long as her growth percentiles are trending in a normal pattern and aren’t dropping, trust that she’s getting enough food.

I’m sure it’s a pretty normal occurrence but it’s a fight trying to get our 2 year old girl to eat. She’s not a picky eater, she just doesn’t ever want to eat. I know you can’t really force a 2 year old to eat, but she’ll eat like one or two bites of food and be done.
I’m kind of the same way, I’ve never had a big appetite; so I guess she gets that from me.
We try to be good about limiting distractions when it’s meal time but that’s not working. I know you can’t force em to eat, but I mean dang, she needs to eat!
my advice.....sit down as family, no tv, no phones, no electronics of any kind. no distractions of any kind.
dont make her eat, but dont allow her to get up until family dinner is over. if she still doesnt want to eat....fine.
but i have found with my kids, especially the 2 with add, that if they think they get to go right back to playing and back to the action, they will cut dinner short. any sort of distraction....same thing.

That's where we struggle- incorporating vegetables.
veggies do nothing. focus on protein. thats where most kids are big time short.

McDonalds in Savannah but bring your own sweet and sour sauce.
