Feeding:feeding problem

2003-10-19

Name: sheena hi all

I have a 13month old babygirl. I had a nice time feeding her till 11th month. But now she has completely stopped eating. She survives on a single bottle of milk and about 150ml of orange juice and another 150ml of apple juice a day. She just turns her face away from food..almost every food..i tried everything ..everything available in the market i suppose!! Visited 2-3 doctors..but everyone is of the opinion that she is picky and let her explore the new world since she is very fond of walking..But we are really worried..i do not know how far she can explore..

i will be very grateful to anyone who can give me any opinion on this....Thanks in advance..

pls help

hi ,
hey i have a child who is 11 mths old and i already have this prob and guess what sheis so thin that even if i try to force feed her( i hate it!)she just shuts her mouth like the jailgates(ha,,)or she justs throws up so ur position is still better.i spoke to my doc they say u have to keep tryin to give her diff things cos today she may like it tomm she may not, and moreover this is just a passing phas.do u hav a older child at home? if u do try to let the older one feed ur younger one cos they trust their age kids than us. for me i cant even do that cos she is my first child! try and let me know! take care!!bye!!!!!!!!!

Hi Sheena and P,
I am also travelling in the same boat. My daughter is 13 months old and until 10 months she was ok with her solids. but later she is very very reluctant to eat. She even stopped taking cereal in the morning. I used to give her rice along with dal or sambar or rasam and veggies. She does not even take fruits or fruit juices. she hardly taken four ounces of milk, may be three to four times a day. I get so frustrated and some times cry a lot. I know that it does not help. I talked to my pediatrician and you know what they say. As long as they have no fever or is active bla bla bla. My daughter walks. I have a 5 year old son. I even tried him feeding her or feeding both of them at the same time. she only eats 4 or 5 bites. that's eat. if i force her, she keeps the last bite in her mouth for a very very very long time. i get disgusted and clean her mouth. because of this food pattern of her, i am even not able to enjoy her childhood. I hope someone will be able to solve this problem of ours like a miracle. I pray God to help all of us.

Thanks a lot!

hi,
Thanks for the reply...This is my first child. So even i am like u..i too hate force feeding her.But at times, i get really irritated and i try that..but the outcome is nothing other than her crying..infact, i get moreirritated.! i think all the doctors have the same opinion that nothing can be done except..try, try and try..do you give vitamins to her? Does she take only liquid food? Does she take any biscuits or chocolates? My daughter even hesitatess to take chocolates, icecream, and almost everything....Is your daughter trying to walk?

take care and love to your kid..
sheena
