A. it is very common that small children did not so much interest in eating food. it is important to meet the doctor to find which type of nutritional deficiency is present and according to that only give supplements to the child which will help in increasing the appetite and at the same time give plenty of water and juice extracted from fruits

A. Hello ma’am yes could b teething As whatever you are mentioning in your queries quite common during that time so as of now if a child is happy having good amount of breastfeed and milk or maybe any other liquid then go ahead with that try to feed the food you know like porridge and khichadi into semi-liquid consistency is that your child can easily swallow it
