#asktheexperts My baby girl is 16 months old, weight is 11.3 kgs. She does not eat solids properly. She drinks almost 1 lit milk everyday. How do I get her to eat more of solids?

A. Try not to worry. Your toddler's refusal to eat is usually temporary. A young child's interest in food will wax and wane — dipping during teething, spiking during growth spurts, dropping during bouts of contrariness, and so on.
