Constant refusal to food by 2 year old
My 2 year sun is on paste like food since beginning. If we give anything harder, it stick in his throat and he vomit all time. He refuses food all time, even water too. We have to keep him distracted and the suddenly put food in his mouth, and the exercise goes for hours each time. He is not growing well because of this. Please suggest what to do?

Feeding,like any other activity in children,requires training and patience.
Give just 2 milk feeds using a glass and 4 solid
meals including curd and Banana in the diet.
Ensure that meal times are fixed,don't feed him through the day.
No,don't give him paste like food,let him eat normal meals you cook at home.
Don't worry,he'll be fine with time,as long as you stick to the above-mentioned advice.
