A. You should give the similar amount as you were giving previously because the child is practically not eating anything 1 teaspoon is not going to make a difference in the amount of milk that is having practically your child is not eating anything please add salt and necessary spices into the food to make it flavour and that is what your child is going to like eat and enjoy
