POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy5 months agoA. It’s common for toddlers, especially around 1 year 7 months, to become picky eaters or refuse food due to teething, distractions, or changing taste preferences. To encourage eating, offer small portions of colorful, finger foods like soft fruits, cheese cubes, or homemade pancakes. Avoid force-feeding and try a playful approach—let him self-feed, use different textures, and serve food in fun shapes. Ensure mealtimes are stress-free by eating together as a family. Reduce snacking and milk intake before meals to increase hunger. If refusal continues for weeks or leads to weight loss, consult a pediatrician to rule out any health concerns.
