Mom of a 6 yr 9 m old boy3 years ago

Q.

#AskTheExpert My 3.5 yr old son doest want to eat at all. He only likes chocolates and nothing else. When we try to feed him anything, the first thing he says is no. 98% of time we have to force feed him. Meal time is a big fuss, please advise how to tackle this.

A. Hello, your baby boy is 42 months old and he doesn’t eat anything except chocolate 🍫 so don’t give him a sweets which provides instant energy and reduces the satiety and get his Hb examined

A. hi mam ,I advise to set some rules for your child. I mean,set one day in week or at 15 days ,on which a child can get such thing like chocolate , biscuits etc but on the other days ,he or she must have to take only Healthy food items . stay calm , consistent and positive with it . Replace such food items with Healthy food items like fruits, nuts,dates ladoo (see it's recipe in my profile) ,etc
