A. Hello dear parent! Consult your child’s doctor for evaluation and advice on vitamin and nutritional deficiency. Gradually include all food groups in your child’s diet that is healthy and staple in your family. Serve healthy foods in cute Babyhug stainless steel bowls and plates to encourage healthy eating.
