Hi all,

My daughter Anwika is very fussy abt food.She doesn' t like anything.We just divert her attention and feed her.Her diet is like
7:00 AM - Formula Milk/Breast Milk(Haldly 2-3 Oz)
9:00 AM - Cerelac + Apple
11:00 AM - Formula Milk or mashed banana
1:00 PM - Rice+dal+boiled veggies with little butter
3:00 PM - Mosambi/Pomegranate Juice
5:00 PM - Formula Milk(2-3 Oz)
7:00 PM - Formula Milk/Breast Milk(2-3 Oz)
1000 PM - Mashed Chapati+milk+banana(1/2 bowl)
11:30 PM - Breast milk
2:00 AM - breast milk

Please suggest if this is ok.Also how much milk should my daughter be taking?

Thanks,

how old is ur daughter...???
1 tip tat worked out well for me was, for a fussy eater, stop feeding (just solids) for 2 days then start wid a blank food... no sweet r salt...
rice cereal is d best to restart... lc replied. sorry, i forgot to tell u about the milk. give her bottle twice a day and it should be fornmula not cow/buffulo milk. and breast feed her. as per ur schedule. u can interduce her cow/buffulo milk when she is 1 not now. it is too strong for her. read the instructions on the formula how much she should get by her age.
take care lc replied. hi divya,

i am very surprised that you feed her like a 2 years old baby. are u from inda well i live in canada.
first of all you don' t interduce cereal untill 6months unless u r told by doctor to start early. it should be rice cereal in the beganing than move to the next cereal. than u interduce her solids and that should be mashed. about 8 months u can interduce her meat/vis also mashed. untill she doesn' t have 4 to 5 teeth u don' t give her anything boiled or full veggie or fruit. don' t give her juice at this stage. it is too sweet. wait untill she is 1year old and deluite with water. so far keep giving her cereal and milk. u can give her mashed banana or avocado. thats why she doesn' t like anything. u can interduce her indian food around 1 it is toooo early at this moment. try different cereal other than rice like oatmeal or cereal with fruit. do not give her wheat yet. babys system is not strong enough to diguest the stretchy wheat.
google ' make home made baby food' klick the first one and it will tell u what and when to give food to ur baby. do not rush and let her sit in her chair while she is eating. she will learn that why and it is easy for u and for her too. i know in indian culture it is alright to give everything to the baby at early stage, but trust me i have a 2 years old and she is wonderful eater becasue i followed that website + my doctors advice, same one i just told u. forget about juice,rice,dal,roti at this stage. you r the only one who can built an appetite for her by interducing the right food at right time. do not listen to anyone. write me back.
take care and good luck.
