Hi Doctor, My Daughter Is 2 Years Old. Till 23
Question: Hi Doctor,
My daughter is 2 years old. Till 23 months she was mostly having blended food as she doesn't want to chew anything and hence, she was mostly having blended food.
Around 1 month back, she started having chapati though reluctantly but, we were feeding her chapati, daal, khichdi etc in non blended form.
For the last one week, she is almost taking nothing. She had very small quantity and then stops eating. If we will not feed her forcefully even after 4-5 hours, she will not demand anything. Can there be some problem based on the description above? Please suggest.
Regards,
Ankur XXXXXXX

Dear XXXXXXX
Some time its normal that children don't wish to take food or feel hungry. She will start taking food very soon. Please make sure that she is not taking any junk food because it may alter the digestion process.
Meanwhile i also suggest you to make sure she is not having any sign of intestinal worm
