hey <b><span style="color:#3B5998;"> @616e0f2c8054f30013c6b524 </span></b> i can understand ur situation as im too in the same boat..my dd is two years now nd she too doesnt eat properly and depends on breast milk..im trying to limit her breastmilk intake so that she eats but in vain..i hv tried feeding her everything veggies,fruits roti rice etc and she eats too but not always.. some days are the worst wen she throws the whole bowl.. some days are the best wen she eats everything given to her.. i wud advise you to not worry..trust ur child on this..thr is no way u can make him eat if he doesn't want to .. obviously i serve her food wen the family eats but i dont think that helps,a disinterested child wudnt eat anyway... from my exp i hv seen that the more physical activities my dd does the more she eats..i take her to park twice and wen we r back i serve her food which she eats,still not always but thr is always a good chance that she wud..fine with me... after eating she asks for milk..sometimes she likes to have fruits.. overall she is a happy and wise child without having diet full of carbs,protein,iron..i knw at some point she wud start eating and ill be ready with all recipes :)... just go with it and keep trying everyday..and about liquid foods its great if she is consuming nutrients in some way..dal khicdi sooji kheer all are great foods.. if she is eating these u can always add veggies , dry fruits to make it more nutritious..point is to give her a good diet ...

Thnx everyone...but the point is...she doesnt even want to taste anything...whatever i serve her...i forcefully feed her everything only dal..khichdi..milk buscuit...sooji kheer...only liquid items...bcz i know she is hungry..

Please read this it will definitely help you.

When the child has good relationship with the food there will not be any food strike, How do we create one? A child who is forced fed will have disliking for food. When they sit before the plate they will know" they like it or they don't like it.. They are hungry or not hungry, mummy is going to force feed" Same applies with distracted feed. If your child is 1. 5 yrs and above do the following things:<br> 1. Take the child to market and get excited about vegetables.<br><br> 2. Make him/her to select vegetables, go for colourful ones. <br><br> 3. Ask them to seperate, clean and take help in arranging it in the fridge, make them to wash and cut the vegetables (plastic knife) and cook it however it was badly cut.<br><br> 4. Appreciate the food and say its yummy tasty etc.<br><br> 5. Eat along with them.<br> This way you will be able to crate an interest and you will not be doing this for ever, just for some time so have patience. Remember vegetables can't be hidden in Paratha, pureed and added in roti or added in maggi. You can't cheat a child forever, sooner or later they will know you have added beetroot puree in thier roti and will reject it royally. Transparency is very important when you bring up your child, so don't cheat them. Remember if a particular vegetable or dish is rejected by the child, cook the same thing after a week or so. Don't quit saying " he doesn't like lauki". If we offer the same food on 20 different occasions they will definitely get a liking and eat. Keep away all the chips, biscuits and cookies or make once a week or as a treat. if the child is going to finish half packet of biscuits then you can't expect him/her to finish her dal chawal. By this time the child should be on 3 meals plus 2 snacks. Meals should have all the food groups like carb, protein, fat and vitamins. Roti/ rice; sabzi with ghee on top of it will make one wholesome meal. Eggs and oranges as snacks will complete their requirements. Curd can also be offered as snack or as dip for Roti. If you are offering more than 400 ml of milk everyday then reduce it to 200 ml, because milk will just fill their tummy leaving no space for solids.<br> Let your kid fall in love with food and look forward to pleasant meal times.

Hi 21 mo should be on family food, can have everything. Its very important to introduce textures as early as 8 months. So please stop all these porridges and liquid items immediately, few days she will do tantrums but have patience and be consistent. Best thing is you sit along with her and eat, show her how to chew. Make sound of chewing, she will imitate you and copy you in few days, offer roti, sabzi, dahi, dal, dal kichadi, dosa, idly. Make her involved in food.
