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.

Mam I can understand you problem intake of childrens will be diffrent yoi may need to follow few things this requires your whole family support. Encourage him to eat on dining with all family members discuss with family members and ask them not say I do not like this stuff for example I do not like raddish the kid will decide to eliminate that food from his plate no nrgative comments on food as kids are good observer they will stop eating that. Now make him little special like after making chapati draw a smily face by jam, arrange his plate in little different way were in hr should be appreciated do not cook same kind of stuff every day get some vatiety kids apprecoate colour, then the taste hope these things will help you out to feed him.
