shweta guptaMom of a 5 yr 8 m old girl4 years agoA. Hey..
I am going through same problem but from 1 week I have started giving food to my daughter to eat herself.. It definitely is a messy and time consuming process but i have noticed that she is taking interest in food and eats better than when I used to feed her.
Kids are fussy at this age because of teething and other changes so if we force them to eat they will resist even more. And if you give them to eat on their own they feel they have control of how much they want to eat and how they want to eat and they will love to explore the various textures and tastes.
Also try to have meals together so that your kid can see and try to eat. These lil humans are very intelligent and like to copy what elders do. So use that technique. She will definitely start eating better.
Hope this helps
All the best... Stay safe 😊

shilpi BhandariMom of 4 children4 years agoA. hello mom if child doesn't have any health issues then dont worry loss of appetite can be due to the teething as well so Do not worry their babies at this age are fussy eaters try to introduce more variety do not ever
force them to eat try to make meal time your family time make him sit with family members so that he can enjoy his meal you can
also offer him finger food which babies easily chew and digest
