A. Good Growth of the child is very important and for this most important is that child should take a healthy diet where its necessary to give a balance diet which should contain all the nutrition required. This is very important for building the immunity also. Encourage for green vegetables fruits dairy products all kinds of dal and other protein containing food items like soyabean eggs etc. Some nutritional deficiencies can be a cause for less appetite like iron deficiency which is most common. Supplrements like iron supplements and multivitamin with lysine like syp zincovit CL can be given for 1-2 months to increase the appetite. f Diet counselling is also very important .

A. Hi mom Continue to give appetizer prescribed by the doctor. Give food in colourful and attractive plates like babyhug plates that attract baby towards food Give finger food as self feeding encourages eating. Make eating fun. Give variety of food and choices to your baby as giving same food daily looses baby interest in eating
