A. If she or he is gaining weight and no other symptoms then no need to worry about it, please keep changing the food , flavour , texture and the consistency as well and use katori spoon feeding, they also get bored with the same menu or routine food sometime.Try to give good energy dense food.

A. hii Put the baby in a high chair or in a swing.... Do not swing the swing while feeding.... Use it as a hanging high chair.... This way baby gets caught in one place.... Then u feed her... With full on entertainment... Wherein u r the joker and ur baby is the audience... Keep a box of toys or books handy to aid u in entertaining the baby... I use the swing.... In fact my whole family tree has been using the swing to feed babies... It's a tried and tested idea.... Give breaks in between and swing the baby when there is no food in her mouth.... Do not swing fast... Go slow... N gradually stop n start feeding again... Peekaboo is one of the favorite games for both my daughters... I hide behind the curtains when baby is in swing n we play peekaboo... It's fun for them Try n see
