ExpertDr.Rasika ThosarPaediatric Intensivist4 years agoA. babies at this age have identity of self, express their needs, refusals.
try finger foods. many babies are keen on that.
try changing menu altogether, give chunkier foods.
all these phases typically occur in babies, do not worry.
give all mashed , chunkier foods ,fruits to your baby. keep the timings same as your meal and snacks times, so it will be easy for you to prepare and feed.
see child's likes and dislikes.
do not forcefeed.
Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 11 m old girl4 years agoA. hi
at first, please check health issues like nutritional deficiency, worm infection, dehydration, teething, stomach problem like colic, constipation and indigestion.
keep offering different dishes with different taste and different texture.
make food presentation attractive
for example
offer fruits in different shapes like star heart smiles etc using shape cutter.
it will help to encourage your child to take interest in food.
try to make your child sit to take meal with whole family because children learn more from imitating their parents.
maintain proper gap between meal and snacks time.
