hi friends,

My 17 months old daughter, she weighs 12kg. The food routine i give for her is, daily the same and boring.. somehow i manage to make her eat by putting some cartoon cds in T.V which she likes.

morning 7 a.m -> 150 - 200 ml milk

morning 9.30 to 10.00 -> wheat cereal with milk

lunch 1.00 -> 1 boiled egg (normally she eats only half of the egg or a little more. & rice khichadi with dal, rasam and 5 veggies mashed.

Then she sleeps by 2.30 after playing. sleeps for 2 hrs.

Evening 5.00 -> curd rice

Dinner 8.30 -> quaker oats with smashed (apple & strawberry)

By 11.00 to 11.30 she takes milk 200ml and sleeps.

So the same routine daily. No change in food. Apart from that she takes gerber finger foods, biscuits inbetween. I give her pieces of roti, dosa, upma etc. whatever we eat and she eats them a bit.

Pls advice me as to if i shld add some other variety to her food routine? Pls advice me regarding her diet.

Thanks,
