My son is 4 Yrs old. By birth he had the problem of transposed great arteries. It was corrected in amrita hospital ernakulam in his first month itself. We have yearly check up and the doctors said his echo result is gud. His growth rate is satisfactory. The actual problem is that his food habit. About 2 Yrs he ate all kinds of food. But for 2 Yrs he eats some kinds of food only. He is not ready to eat meals for 2 Yrs. He eats only chappatti and soya chunks fry and some kinds of fruits. My anxiety is that he may be lack adequate nutrients. We are totally upset about his health. Please suggest me a solution.

Dear lybrate-user. Thanks for the question. I can understand. Your son's present affinity towards certain food is not due to his heart condition, I believe. Children learn from what they are being taught and how they are taught because they are fast learners. The behavior of your son is shaped by his care givers, please understand. I suggest you to consult a psychologist for intervention. Take care.
