Hi all,

My daughter is 14 month's old and has the following diet:
Morning - Ragi porridge/Rava kheer made with milk- 1cup
Aft - Rice + Moong Dal Khichdi with Veg and Ghee - 1 cup
Evening - Scrambled Egg with 1/2 cheese slice
Night - 1 small banana + small dosa/mashed apple

In between she has 2 glucose biscuits.

Night + overnight - 2-3 feedings of BM.

Is this good enough? She is not gaining weight very well. She refuses to drink cow's milk.

Btw, how much cow's milk is needed at this stage? Latha replied. If you are still nursing, your child does not need any cow's milk as long as your child is getting between 16-19 ounces of bm. My son is 14 mo old, and we don't give him any cow's milk yet since I am still Bfing him. As for the food, agree with the previous poster -- you can give your child what you eat as long as it is not too spicy and not a choking hazard. Make sure your child gets enough iron though! virgo replied. at 14 mts i guess a child shd be eating most of what we adults eat. u can make it less spicy for ur kid. u can give chapathi, idli,dosa, parathas,bread,u can also give pulao, dal sabji. no need to mash into a fine paste. ref to your paed & ask if u can give pediasure if ur kid refuses cow's milk. my sugestion is to wean from bm. make sure u feed ur baby well at night, so that she sleeps on full stomach. regarding weaning, u can read other posts posted by others. i suggest u read replies given by hetal. not only she is informative, but very clear in her ideas also.
