A. Better not to force the child to eat as it may trigger a negative attitude towards food. Instead even if the child takes less, feed the child frequently. Try giving varieties and finger foods which the child can feed on his own under ur supervision. Make sure there is no choking hazard. Slowly the child should get back to normal appetite.
