My baby eats a lot in the morning but hardly anything at night — is this imbalanced?

My baby eats really well in the morning but almost nothing by evening. Is such uneven meal distribution a problem?

This pattern is common in many babies and is usually just a temporary phase. In babies who eat eagerly in the morning and tire during the day, evening refusal is common. What matters is the 24-hour total intake and your baby's growth curve — if the evening meal is sparse but daily energy needs are being met and weight gain is normal, there's no problem.

To balance this out: you can shift the evening meal to an earlier time, or keep the environment calm and minimize distractions when offering it. If this pattern lasts longer than 2 weeks or you notice a slowdown in weight gain, check with your pediatrician.
