Hello Doctor.. I am concerned about my daughter's appetite. she eats in very small quantities and that too after force feeding. Be it solids or fluids, her response is the same. However, her energy level is good, doesn't seems to have any problem. what should I do...should I be concerned about her diet.

A. dear Mum, it is fine if your baby is eating in small quantities. you should give small, frequent meals 4 to 5 times a day and up to one katori every time. you should not force feed.
