Baby doesn't want to eat
Goodmorning,
My baby is 16 months old, weigh 10kg. She is teething, my concern is she doesn't want to eat anything, she refuses everything which she use to like earlier, otherwise she is active and playing. Why it's happening, is it due to teething?

Her growth is very good. Probably it’s due to boredom. Also change of weather can affect diet. As you mentioned she is active and playful then nothing to worry. If you haven’t done deworming for her that can be done.
