POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy11 months agoA. For your 2.7-year-old with a light appetite and constipation, here are some strategies to help:
Improving Appetite:
1. Routine: Establish regular meal times to create a sense of routine.
2. Variety: Offer a variety of foods to make meals interesting, including colorful fruits and vegetables.
3. Small Portions: Serve small amounts to avoid overwhelming her, and let her ask for more if she's still hungry.
4. Involve Her: Let her help with meal preparation to increase interest in food.
Addressing Constipation:
1. Increase Fiber: Include high-fiber foods such as:
Whole grains (oatmeal, whole grain bread)
Fruits (apples, pears, berries)
Vegetables (carrots, broccoli)
Legumes (beans, lentils)
2. Stay Hydrated: Ensure she drinks plenty of water throughout the day.
3. Regular Physical Activity: Encourage play and activities that promote movement.
4. Routine Bathroom Time: Establish a regular time for her to sit on the toilet, especially after meals.
When to Consult a Doctor:
If constipation persists or worsens.
If you notice signs of distress, such as pain during bowel movements or blood in the stool.
Regular check-ups can help monitor her growth and address any concerns.
