A. this activity is called mouth pocketing where kids keep food in mouth for a long time. try few steps like 1. remove the pocketed food from mouth...then give sip of water and try again. 2. reduce the size of bite from next time . 3. Encourage the kid to chew and try exiting ways of presenting simple food so that they find interest in it.

A. it is advisable to continue your efforts in feeding the child. many times it take more efforts from the parents to make the child eat nutritious food. so kindly go for different recipes and flavours which might improve the appetite of the child. At the same time it is xalso important to meet your doctor to rule out nutritional deficiency which might be the cause of loss of appetite. Give juizce fruits and water which will improve appetite and regular physical activity.
