psharma · Sep 3, 2013

hi
i am a worried mom of 18 month old boy SHREY. he doesn't eat anything or drink. i have tried a lot of recipes n tricks but failed.
he doesn't like sweet so fruits n milkshakes n smoothies are not even looked at.
his stool n urine are normal n regular. my paed says i should keep trying but not force him for anything.
i am giving him vitamin n calcium. his weight is 10.5 kg. he is very active n shows no signs of tiredness. i give him my BM 3-4 times in a day n nite(i have to bcoz he doesn't eat anything n cries his heart out).
he drinks half cup milk sometimes while watching his poems, if i give him food he simply keeps it back in the kitchen.
he used to eat regular meals 3 months back
please give your suggestions/ advice.

Hi psharma
Children at this age are fussy.They must've by now developed their taste.
So try these tips
1) try to wake up child early and give a breakfast.
2) keep a gap of about 3 hours between each snack or meal.If you give it more frequently child might not eat it because hes not hungry.
3) dont force food.If hes trying to eat on his own let him do it.I know it can get messy but if he likes it let him do.
