Good day sis!

Parang ganyan din ang baby ko. He is 2 yrs old now. Ayaw niya talaga kumain. Puro milk ang gusto niya. Dede siya ng dede. Minsan kapag gusto niya kumain junkfoods ang gusto niya. Nakakalungkot kasi I cant do anything about it. Kahit mag prepare ako ng food para sa kanya, ayaw talaga niya kainin. Please help naman mga sis!

My solution for this is distraction. Super mapili din before sa food ang daughter ko she would only eat rice na may sabaw minsan ayaw pa. Hindi rin siya malakas mag milk. Nakaka 12oz lang siya of Pediasure complete a day pero she eats naman 3x a day yung full meal and 2x a day merienda..pero sa tingin ko hindi pa rin enough yung puro rice lang at konting ulam. Mag uulam lang siya pag mongo or fish fillet ang ihahain. Although malaki na improvement niya ngayon kesa before (sobrang payat niya) thanks to Pediasure complete and Restor Big. Pero feeling ko kulang pa din yung nakukuhang nutrients ng katawan niya.

Try niyo siya i-distract kapag kumakain. Kapag nag stop na daughter ko sa pagsubo hahayaan namin siya mag play while eating para lang kumain (ayaw talaga namin to but we're desperate na mag gain siya ng weight). Sometimes mas marami siyang nakakain kapag nasa harap niya iPad (again ayaw din naman namin ito pero kapag wala pa siya nakakain wala rin kami choice) pero hindi ito madalas mangyari. Sometimes sinasabayan niya si talking tom na uminom ng milk kaya minsan mabilis nauubos milk niya

Sometimes i also point things sa ceiling or sa wall tapos biglang susubuan ko siya kapag distracted na hindi na niya napapansin hanggang sa maubos na niya yung nasa plate niya

Iba iba din mood ng baby ko. Minsan siya na magsusubo mag isa ng food niya minsan ayaw.

Try niyo different food tapos ulit ulitin niyo lang i'm sure may magugustuhan naman si baby sa dami ng healthy food na available ngayon. Try niyo din different techniques.

Sabi rin pala ng pedia sa amin. Hindi dapat ang baby mag adjust sa time ng pagkain natin.. Dapat tayo ang mag aadjust sa kanila. Possible kasi na yung time ng dinner natin for example is 7pm tapos 7pm din pakakainin si baby eh baka by that time wala na siya sa mood kumain.. Possible na 6pm ang best time na pakainin siya so nasa timing din mga mommies. Wag natin i-assume na kung anong oras ang pagkain natin ng breakfast lunch at dinner eh yun din ang time na nagugutom sila or gusto nila ng food.

Good luck!

At home, we feed my son when he is watching cartoons.  Nagkataon na meal time yung fave cartoons niya so we take of advantage of it.   Yes, bad habit nga siguro and there are some articles that discourage this practice but it works for us. Maspinili namin eto keysa hindi sya kumain.  But when we eat / dine out whether at a fancy resto or a fastfood joint, wala syang toy or other distraction pero kumakain naman.   If maagapan nyo, I wont encourage this practice (watching tv and eating).  Better pa rin to eat at the dining table.

Dati rin hirap syang pakainin, it took us a few months to improve on this. Trial and error din. Kahit anong ulam namin, we try to feed it to him. Now he can eat afritada, adobo, sinigang, tinola, sweet and sour fish, lumpia, siomai, etc.  Yung vegetables, sinasama ko sa meat and rice para hindi niya gano malasahan. Even fresh lettuce, sinasama ko kahit fried chicken or hotdog ang ulam.  And pag ayaw talga nyang kumain or hindi maubos ang food, hinahayaan namin. Pilitin once or twice but if talgang ayaw, then stop eating na. This way, hindi sya traumatized sa pagkain.   We also try to vary the food/ulam that we offer in a day. Pedeng ulam niya yesterday lunch, maging ulam niya for dinner today. But not same ulam for lunch and dinner that day.  And then sometimes, we have pancakes, pandesal or cereals for breakfast para hindi magsawa sa rice.

He can finish more than 1/2 cup of rice during mealtimes.  And he likes fruits.  Sometimes he asks for orange, grapes, mango. But I also let him eat chips, chocolates, cakes, donuts, etc. for snacks but not on a daily basis. Just enough para hindi sya magsawa sa good food.   Bihira na rin syang magmilk ngayon so mas magana sa solids.

Question lang mommies, picky na rin ang 20 month old girl ko. Pag hinaluan ko ng kahit kapirasong gulay yung rice niya, naduduwal. Don't know kung arte lang pero alam ko pag full na sya ganun yun minsan. Nangyayari ba yan sa baby nyo? Ty

Hello Mommies 
Paano nyo handle if your 2 yr old baby eh medyo mapili na kumain... to be specific RICE!

[momi95]

Hi mommy! Una, ano ang gusto o nakakain niya. Kung me specific na food siya na gusto, dun ka magsimula gumawa ng variations at pandaraya para makain niya  yung ibang food. Pwede ka rin mag-puree ng iba't ibang pagkain para na-enjoy niya.  Minsan, ang ayaw nila e yung nakikita nila, at hindi yung lasa. Pwede mo din gawan ng mga shapes and me color mula sa ibnag pagkain para maenjoy nila.  Wag mo din i-force feed para hindi lalong ma-trauma....

My daughter was really a  picky eater before... All she really wants is her milk and we did everything to make her eat....but always ends up with her milk.kasi iniiyakan na niya.  til  she turned 2 years old.. and she really dont want to take any vitamins syrup... till I tried the Scotts Chewable Vitamins... She really love it.. and surprsingly... parati na syang tumatambay sa ref namin and palaging gutom...ubos niya na palagi yung sineserve naming rice and ulam sa kanya.... and  kakain lang ng rice..hanap na naman ng food sa ref.. from time to time,she always looking for food.. so we always make sure na may food sa ref . kaya ang problema namin ngayon, plgi naman nakabukas yung hahaha... and her weight really increased... hindi sya matabang mataba like other kids..but you know na healthy sya kasi pag kinarga mo sya sobrang bigat..and actually malapit ko na syang di mabuhat.. healthy,shiny hair, rosy fluffy cheeks.. ambilis rin ng growth niya..pero yung growth niya i think sa milk niya yun kasi maliit kami pareho ni hubby pero obvious na malaking babae sya. thank god my chewable vitamins cgro try nalang namin magdagdag ng syrup pag pwede na sya pilitin painumin ng other vitamins..cgro around 4? as of now.. Scotts lessen my worries

Hi po mga sis. My son is turning 2 yo sa dec pero ayaw pa rin po niya magmilk sa bottle. Gusto po niya breastfeeding lang. I tried several powdered milks na po. Kahit fresh milk ayaw pa rin po niya. What should i do po?

[emillywilliams]

You should try two things from my opinion,

First, keep changing in food types you offer him
Second, involve him into fun activities that may take from his mental energy and makes him more hungry

Good Luck

yung baby ko humina ng kain or minsan talaga di kumakain as in milk lang sya ng milk di ko alam gagawin eh.. Ang milk niya promil preschookl over 3yrs old  and yung vitamins niya naman kakapalit lang sa appebon. Ano ba gagawin ko..

[mdeluna]

Hello mommy Judie. If napa-check up mo na si baby and ok naman sya. I think, wala ka dapat ipag-worry kasi yung niece ko ganyan din. Dumaan din sya sa stage na yan. As in no rice, milk lang ng milk. Observed mo pa din. If several months na ganyan pa din, pa-check mo ulit. yung niece ko, umabot ng 4 months ganyan. Then paunti-unti sya bumalik sa pagkain.
