Question: We have a 2 year old and 6 months old twins. Sarah, the 2 year old doesn't eat. She only likes to drink milk and as a result gets hungry throughout the night with 'screaming sessions'. We have tried various tonics which are supposed to encourage eating. The night screaming sessions (30 mins each, sometimes 3 or 4 times) make her tied and grumpy during the day.
She isn't under weight for her age, but refuses to eat anything and just drinks milk or juice.
Any suggestions to encourage her to eat ?
