Talk to Pediatrician on Eating Behavior After Diarrhea
Asking For Other, Female 1, Multan
Aoa. My niece aged 15 months & weight 10 kg. She is on buffalo milk feed no mither feed. Five days ago, she had diarrhea with loose motion & vomitting. Now, she has been recovered from diarrhea after having antibiotics treatment. But, the problem is she is not eating anything. When we give her something to eat, she doubts(ajeeb sa munh bnati; shyd weham krti hy) then vomits all food item. She remains hungry; eating nothing. If we force her to eat; she again vomits all the stuff. Respected pediatrician kindly tell me what's its reason & recommend something so that she start eating.. Thanks!

There could be multiple reason of this behavior , first the child is just recovered from an infection and received antibiotic these things could alter a child taste sensation, second it could be due to teething, third some kids are picky eater and some prefer easy stuff like milk.
What you need to do is not too much stress, try small amount of different food and lighter food and give her food according to her preference and try to limit milk intake at this age she shouldn't have more than 20ounces milk in 24 hours.
Hope it will help you.
