POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy4 months agoA. It's common for a 13-month-old baby to eat less compared to earlier months, and it’s usually a normal part of development. Around this age, babies’ growth rate slows down compared to their first year, so their appetite naturally decreases. They also become more active, distracted by walking, playing, and exploring, which can reduce interest in sitting and eating.
Additionally, teething, minor illnesses, or changes in routine (like travel or vaccinations) can temporarily affect their appetite. It’s important to continue offering a variety of healthy foods without forcing them. Focus on small, frequent meals and allow the baby to self-feed, which often increases interest.
If your baby is active, meeting milestones, and growing steadily, there is usually no need to worry. However, if there is significant weight loss, persistent refusal to eat, or other signs of concern, it’s best to consult your pediatrician.
