@cns anecdotal: up until his first birthday my son ate practically zero solids. on a really good day he'd eat a couple spoons of hummus. most days it was absolutely nothing. i was breastfeeding so he also refused bottles completely. and ofcourse, in order to get all the calories he needed he was waking up to nurse every 30 to 60 minutes all throughout the night. it really took a toll on my mental health, so the night he turned one, I weaned cold turkey. He ate a full breakfast the next morning. and lunch, and dinner, and even snacks in between. He slept 4-5 hour stretches and then though the night after day 3. he didn't even ask for the boob through out the day. and at night he settled very easily and was back asleep within a couple minutes. he's 17 months old now and eating habits are up and down like most toddlers, nothing out of the ordinary.
