mom of naomiMom of a 6 yr 5 m old girl6 months agoA. im experiencing the same wd my 5 year 11 month daughter who doesnt chew her food n instead swallows the food. n takes 1 hr to finish her food.(may be even more if left unattended)
i m forced even threaten her after all levels of convincing and cmfrting and encouraging and waiting to give food when hungry and changed the textures tastes and kinds of food given.. reduced junk to almost nil..
still absolutely no change..
she will eat(swallow) quickly if i feed her wd my hands and i dont want to do that.(i m in the verge of doing that to restore the peace in my house)
nothing seems to work in my house..

Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy6 months agoA. Hello my dear parent! Give your child meals only after feeling hungry. Keep changing the menu so that your child will taste different foods and flavours. Serve your child with healthy foods in cute Babyhug bowls to encourage healthy eating
