What Causes Loss Of Appetite For My 16-month-old Daughter?
My daughter has not shown anytime that she is hunger. My daughter s age is 16th month only. Doctor has prescribe me that no pressure about her daily food routine, if she wants to spend the whole day with water then it is ok but no pressure..... But I can t understand..
