A. give all family foods to your child the way you prepare in your house according to the regional food preferences. give homemade balanced diet having variety of food groups Grains Pulses , powdered nuts Egg and Nonveg especially seasonal fruits and vegetables even green leafy vegetables which are found to be lacking in infant diet. about 400-500 mL of milk but instead of giving only as milk which reduces the appetite for other food use milk to prepare recipes like porridge, kheer and give as milk products like curd, paneer, cheese. give top food five or more times a day and up to one katori every time. breastfeed baby till 2 years. Fussy eating behaviour is very common among babies. try to give food in an attractive manner, interesting shapes of bread and parantha, colourful combination of cut fruits. don't force feed, it creates negative relationship with food.
