Mom of a 4 yr 5 m old boy2 years ago

Q.

#asktheexperts My son is 1 year 5 months old. Past 3 days he is refusing to eat. He is only accepting formula milk. He has done this before too. I am worried as now he walks and is more playful and wont have enough energy and nutrition. What should I do? His is teething too. Just not eating anything exept milk. Not taking breast feed as well.

A. Hi it's common during the teething phase that kids suffer from loss of appetite.. give whatever food your baby is liking to avoid any nutritional deficiencies.. gently massage the gum pad area with clean finger tip or moist cold cotton cloth

A. hello you should limit the amount of milk to ot more than 500 ml in a day and you should try with different food option and recipe and also give baby small portion of food frequently instead of one large meal at a time and this can help baby accept the food
