Loss of appetite

DD has always been a light eater, and we struggle to put weight on her.  The past few days however, have been particularly difficult.  She will take her milk bottles (about 18 oz for the day) but almost no food at all.  For the day, she will eat like one bite of cheese, one bite of egg, a couple of strawberries, a jar of prunes, and maybe a few raisins or bites of yogurt.  I don't know how to make her eat more, she refuses and then cries, and I don't want her to hate eating.  I feel like I offer a ton of variety, but she just outright does not want it.  Otherwise, she is generally happy and not abnormally cranky.  Anyone experience anything like this lately?

    Grace seems to be getting molars in and could care less about eating.  She ate 1/2 of a carrot stick, 4 olives and 2 bites of a meat ball. I feel like I'm doing headstands to get her to eat anything lately.  But I fall back on her eating when

    Thanks for the advice.  She may be getting some teeth in - like she'd let my fingers anywhere near the inside of her mouth!  She only has her two bottom ones, which did not cause any real headache when they came in, but maybe she's getting some

    Over the weekend I noticed loss of appetite with Jonathan too.  He usually a good eater, but all weekend he would just pick on food, and was just snacking all day.  He wouldn't have a full meal.

    I am going to blame it on cold he has, he
