This is a common observation, kids are now more active @ mobile they are more interested in all things around them. Feeding is boring act at this age Have patience your baby will be happy and healthy but don’t push meals, he will demand when he will be hungry

At his age, he would be more interested in walking around and exploring rather than eating. Forceful feeding will do more harm than good. His weight for age is in the normal range, so don't worry. Make him sit with other family members at meal times. He will try to mimic the adults. Also place soft pieces of food that he can himself pick and eat. This will help in developing a sense of individuality. Syrup for increasing hunger is not advisable. Deworming maybe done every six months. Syp zentel (400/10).5 ml to be given at bedtime and repeat 5 ml after 15 days.

Hello maam, fussy eating is a common problem in toddlers. There is no medications which can increase hunger, without creating any harmful effects. So instead, try some behavioural changes like sitting the child with a plate during common family meals, giving him common family foods, letting him eat by himself, and avoiding mobiles and tv during mealtimes. Children get inspired by their parents feeding habits, so taking care of this is essential. Avoiding processed feeds available in the market and trying home foods like khichdi, upma, roti, daal, paranthas will be more helpful. Try to change menu everyday and ensure the food is tasty. May add ghee or butter to each meal to increase calorie intake. Egg or soyabean are high protein foods and must be included in diet. Hope I have answered your queries.
