hello,

my 6 months old daughter doesnt eat apples papaya n pears..she likes only bananas n mangoes..i tried to mix papaya with banana but she eats very little..apples n pears she doesnt like even if i puree them or sweeten them with jaggery..how to make her eat these fruits..? what other fruits can i give her..? Mel replied. If she doesn' t like something, leave it out. If apples, papayas and pears are rich in certain vitamins like vitamin C, Crotene etc, then give her something else which contains those vits and minerals. If you keep offering her the food items she dislikes, mealtimes may become a battle. Let the eating experience be enjoyable. Other fruits you can try are peaches, melons, chikoos, litchis,(my son loves grapes and oranges, but give her small quantities of orange (all membrane removed) until she is 8 months old, also, grapes should be skinned and cut into 4 pieces at least, or pureed so that she doesn' t choke on them).
Neelima, all mothers in India don' t restrict fat, a small number of them may do so. neelima replied. hi neha,
respect her likes.if she likes only bananas and mangoes so be it..there is a whole life in front of him to eat other fruits....for your kind info we give them fruits ot other tastes only to awaken their taste buds..thats fruits donut have very few calories and high fiber which makes their stomach full very soon because of water content in them....rather until two years focus on high calorie foods like fat which is very importanmt for thier brain development.after two concentare on fruits until then please give her maximum fat like egg yolk, ghee, formulas milk, butter, paneer, cheese etc.mothers in India do this mistake of restricting fat to their babies because of heart issues..but be cool under 2 years of age it(fat) doest do any harm
ok bye
