Eating habits

2020-06-11 16:24:42
My son 2 yr old is not eating anything, totally depends on breastfeeding. Everytime My wife try to feed him chapati or rice either he will ran away or starts crying without taking a single spoon of meal. Since he is 2yr old everyone's advising my wife to feed him food and stop breastfeeding. How long it is recommended to breastfeed?? And how can I make my son eat solid food? Please help.

Decrease the amount of milk and increase the semisolid and solid diet. Give same recipe for minimum 6-7days therefore he develop taste.

Don't worry..this is part of habit don't run around him for food ,make his food time more playful ,Give some colourful eatables, Let ur child to eat by self if he want to even he eat less and throws more  let him do it . Nature has given sense of appetite to every child so wait he will ask for food .Breastfeeding at nighttime only to  make him sleep.
