Hi,
my son is 1 yr old and from past one month he is reducing his diet.He wants to take food only in 3 hrs interval.so, i am not sure whether i m giving him too much food at a time or he is not liking the food.
can any one help me by telling how many ounces/ml of cerelac or milk shake or khichri or porridge should be given to a 1 yr old baby?
pls pls let me know..

thanks,

My paed has told me to give everything to my son as long as he can digest it and it is safely cooked.

Let him eat whatever he wants and his health should be ok. The other reason his intake may have decreased is because you are not offering variety.

You can give tadka to his dal-rice. Give him roti-sabzi -- less spicy. Give variety and he is definitely going to eat.
