Every child has a different appetite, a different method.
A structured schedule for the day , including meal times, bath, play and sleep times is required.
A variety of food to be offered.
Kids have various stages of food rejection.
Has she lost weight? If yes how many kgs?
There are many queries to ask.
There is no magic medicine to increase appetite.
Each child varies, as long as they are hitting their developmental milestones and growth charts adequately.
Please book an appointment to discuss further.
