ExpertDr. Minal AcharyaNutritionist3 years agoA. dear mum, many babies are fussy eaters at this age. you have to be patient and keep trying.
young babies have small stomach capacity, so give small frequent meals.
encourage feeding by self and along with the family.
do not force feed. engage child in loving conversations and stories.
do not bottle feed. milk intake should not be more than 500ml this includes Milk products as well.
if baby is active, playful, achieving all growth milestones, weight is within the normal range for baby's age then do not worry.
