A. hello mum if child is eating his favourite food and chewing g it properly then definitely there is not any problem at all this is just about the mood of the child make your child sit with family members when they are having food you yourself eat food in front of him by showing properly tell him to chew the food properly and its benefits or if she is trying then do not forget to give rewards and encourage her

Q. Hello Doctor, My 2.5 year old son doesn’t know chewing at all. He has been given only blended/ mashed food so far, so he just knows how to swallow directly. If I try giving him semi solid food, as he directly swallows it without chewing it becomes a choking hazard/ he pukes. He simply doesn’t know what chewing is. Please help !!
