Hai... This is the age when kids start developing more affinity towards play rather than food. If she's active & gaining weight normally...do not worry... Gradually she will fall into the groove again. I think force feeding has made her develop an aversion towards foods & that's why she's vomiting at the sight of food. Kindly avoid force feeding her. Happy to help anytime. If you are happy with my reply, kindly rate it.
