Hi everybody,
My son has completed 1yr and still he has not started walking.He stands and walks with support.My friend' s daughter born one day after him has started walking.when i told this to the paed. he has given him calcium syrup.
His weight is also less.he is 8.4kgs and birthweight was 3.4kgs.
give some tips to improve his weight.
my son doesn' t drink milk.all these days i was giving him breastmilk and cerelac and whatever food we cook like rice,sambhar etc.now when i try to give him packet milk he simply refuses and i don' t konw what to do.
Can i give yoghurt if he likes.rather than yoghurt he likes curd rice.does curd have same nutrients as milk?
i' m planning to give him dry fruits like dates,figs,almond.i' ll soak 1 date,i almond and put in mixie and make it a paste and give him?is this method of giving him dryfruits ok?
He likes eating raw tomato.Is that ok for him?
now since its summer,he likes to drink anything thats cool.can i give him slightly chilled milk or homemade chilled juice?i was giving pomegranate juice,but suddenly he got cold, so for timebeing i have stopped pomegranate juice.Please suggest what other fruits i can give him.he likes watermelon very much.will he get cold if he takes watermelon?

Please clarify my doubts? varuna replied. dear Kandhu...

Both of us are sailing in the same boat.my son is also 1yr old.
u can give him coconut water in the summer season with out the fear of getting cold.
along with that u can also try milk shakes made out of chikko,banana or mango.
u try with this juice-a quater piece of skinned and fresh apple,7-8grapes,2-3 pieces of pineapple.u blend the three in a blender and add enough water(QUARTER GLASS).Extrtact the juice and add few spoons of orange juice at last and feed him in hot summer evenings.
u shall try curd in the after noons or along with the rice in the form of butter milk(dont forget to put little salt in the butter milk)

all the best
varuna.
