kuch khati piti nhi hai... kya kre

A. If your 5 years and 7 months old child is not eating or drinking enough, it could be due to various factors. It's common for children to experience phases of poor appetite, especially as they become more independent and develop their preferences. However, persistent refusal to eat or drink could be linked to several reasons, such as underlying health issues like digestive problems, food aversions, or even emotional factors like stress or changes in routine. Sometimes, a lack of interest in food may be related to a growing phase or minor illness. It's important to ensure that your child is not feeling pressured to eat, as this can sometimes make the situation worse. Encouraging a regular eating schedule, offering a variety of nutritious foods, and making mealtimes enjoyable can help. If the issue persists, or if your child is showing signs of weakness, weight loss, or fatigue, it is advisable to consult with a pediatrician. They can rule out any medical conditions, like anemia or gastrointestinal issues, and provide guidance on how to improve your child's eating habits.
