Well it is not at all neccessary to add any protein supplements if your are able to meet the requirements by home cooked diet. Just make sure that child gets good proportions of all the elements in the diet.

Hi lybrate-user, it's completely fine not to give him pediasure or cerelac. You can keep giving him home based balanced diet. I would like to ask what is the weight and height of the child. Thanks you.

Not required if his weight and height are normal. Also check him for mineral and trace element deficiency such as calcium vit d and iron deficiency. Treat him for specific problems. Formula milk and food substitutes are not required.

No. U r doing good. Home made food is the best. But now as he is 3 years old, give him normal food whatever us cooked at home. Make him sit with you n have meals together.

Please ensure your child eats all group of foods like cereals, pulses, fresh fruits and vegetables including green leafy vegetables, dairy products, eggs, meat and fish. Including all this ensures that the child will receive all nutrients. It is not compulsory to give formula if the child's weight, height and head growth are appropriate for age.

Not at all, you need not give any outside food (packaged formula feeds) to your baby. Home based diet with right proportion of cereals, pulses ,vegetables and fruits is more than enough for growth of your son. But if you want to give pediasure is the formula which is designed ofr 3 year old child.
