What should I do if my 2-year-old baby doesn’t like to eat? Mom has a way to deal with it

I believe that many parents have faced the problem of children not liking to eat. This is very troublesome. When faced with children not liking to eat, parents should not be anxious, let alone force them. Instead, they should use scientific methods and the children will definitely love to eat.

1. No matter how old the baby is, he must develop good dining habits. Even when he is a baby, feeding time is his meal time. So whether feeding or eating, the baby must concentrate on the meal. He cannot eat while watching TV, nor can he use toys to amuse the child while eating. He must not let the baby eat and play with toys by himself. The most important point is that parents should not criticize and educate the baby while eating, which will make the baby's mood drop and completely lose the mood to eat. If you want the baby to eat well, in addition to delicious food, mood is also very important.

2. If you want your baby to eat well, it is very important to start adding complementary foods to your baby. The successful addition of complementary foods is to lay a good foundation for your baby to eat well in the future. For those children who are picky eaters or have poor chewing abilities, if parents do not grasp the scale well at the initial stage of adding complementary foods, they will have to find ways to make up for the regret in the future.

3. Develop a good habit of eating at fixed times. The reason why some babies don’t like to eat or don’t eat well at mealtime is because they are not really hungry and have no stomach to eat. It is because the parents give them too many snacks, fruits, and small foods between meals. The stomach capacity of a baby is actually very small. It is not like what parents think that the more the baby eats, the better the child will grow. On the contrary, irregular eating will lead to food accumulation in the baby, and food accumulation will cause many diseases. Among them, abdominal pain, abdominal distension, loss of appetite, and colds may all be caused by food accumulation. Babies are prone to illness if they have food fire, so don’t force the baby to eat when he doesn’t want to eat. It doesn’t matter if the child is hungry for one or two meals. If you want your child to be safe, three parts hunger and cold are the best. This is also the truth of our parenting.

4. If parents want their baby to eat more, they can change the shape and color of the food, or change the way of eating. For example, if the baby does not like to eat dried tofu, then parents can wrap the rice in the dried tofu. It is actually very simple. Just pick it up with chopsticks. Then parents can tell the baby that the rice is hidden in the dried tofu, and they are playing hide-and-seek with the baby. In this way, the child finds fun in eating and will naturally be willing to eat.

The above is the handling and solution to the problem of babies not liking to eat. I wonder if new mothers have any insights. I hope your babies can grow up strong and healthy.
