Hi Hetal n All,
My problem is same as that of Anu's. My baby girl will be 1 yr this 14th Sept.She is also not eating anything apart fropm having Lactogen-2 + breastfeeding.
My wife makes variety of items for her but she literally throws them out.
She used to eat Nachni,Dal-Rice,Khichdi,Kadhi-Roti (All in small quantity).
She has 4 teeths and was not feeling well past few days.Even she denies to take the Tonics given by the doctors.
Me n my wife are very worried about the same.Her wt is 9.5 KGs.
Pl help.

Hetal replied. babies at 1year often go thru alot of emotional change and physical change. their body is maturing to toddler year and now they will be more interested in running around.
since your baby already has 4 teeths, your baby gums will be preparing for the rest teeths and premolars on the way..which will be sometimes when she is 1 year and 7-8months..but she will be preparing for that,now itself.
also note that, what do i understand that she is not feeling well past days ?
does it mean, she is not active ?
does it mean, she is getting tired ?
does she have a temperature ? check on her bowels and number of wet diapers ? how many are they ?
is she well hydrated ? min of 4-5wet diapers or 2-3heavily wet diapers,depending on hw many times you change them !!
bowels should be normally once a day, if not then your baby is not getting enough fiber.sometimes once a while crossing a day is ok,,but she is expected to pass bowel on the second day by noon.
what is consistency of her bowels ? if very hard, she is constipated so is having loss of apetite due to constipation.if hard but regular than lack of liquids in her diet..increase juices, and vegetable soups in her diet.
throwing out also means she might need a change in texture of foods.
try altering the texture.watever you mentioned is all pasty food..did you try other things like pastas, boiled lil lumps of vegetables ?, try giving that see if she accepts that. sometimes babies do that. i too understood that my baby has graduated to table foods when she started puking out the pasty cereal.now she eats only chunks and no paste at all,at her 1 year. sometimes she asks for harder things so i would give her some teething biscuits.
m not sure if its there in India. if not then you can give them some big long piece of cold vegetable to chew. its cold so relieves from teething, works as a teethers and because they dont know hw to bite it or eat it, they willjust chew it,,be next to her so that she doesnt try to eat it.
introduce her variety of foods, tofu,paneer, and other foods,,keep trying not much we can do wth babies maturing.
her weight looks ok to me except for 500gms less.thats all but, thats not a worry. unless your baby was born with heavy weight above 8lbs..in short, your baby should be around triple the birth weight at 1 year.
wat do you mean by not feeling well ?? i couldnt understand that.wat does she do ???
babies never like tonics. give thru drop suspenser its easier that way or with medicine injector..its easier that way.
so thats all i could understand from all you mentioned.also how much formulamilk is she having. she is expected to have 24oz-32 oz of formula,
4-6 tablespoons of infant cereal or a grain serving,4 ounces or 1/2 cup (from cup only)of juice,8 tablespoons of fruits, 8 of vegetables,and 8 of meat or any source of high protein or tofu and lentils if you are vegetarian.
also 1 year kids demand family foods, like whatever you are eating they want to share from you,since you cannot give all tht spicy foods, put her food in your plate and serve from that,,if she wants to taste your food, go ahead offer her a lil taste.
also making your baby sit for her meals along with the whole family sometimes creates interest in food.
so try these...
Good Luck.
