Hi, Superb recipe. My 19th Month old is not eating anything. I am really worried. Sometimes he only drink milk and rest day he eat nothing. Before sleeping, I tried to give him milk but he won't take. I tried Indian recipe (chapati, rice and many things you mentioned above), I tried USA food for toddlers (I am currently in USA). Here Dr has not given any food supplement, so I am worried for his proper nutrition intake. I tried to forcefully put food in his mouth but he simply close his mouth or take out everything and cries a lot. I went to PD and he said it is perfectly normal at this age. But I can't seat and wait until he ask something to eat. He sometimes eat banana but someone told me banana's are not for this age for cough. Not sure if it is true? Saw your recipe and can't resist myself to ask you for help. Thanks.

Hunger strike is common with babies.It's may be a temporary phase like teething or growth spurt.. . Don't worry if baby s active.. Just keep offering new foods & variety of foods..baby will be back to routine in few weeks ...
Regarding Bananas, try with yelaki small variety bananas. Hybrid bananas may cause cold.

Can I give custard desert four times in a week for one year old baby.Is custard powder safe for baby.
gkfooddiary
You can prefer to give this twice a week. So that yo can give other variety of foods as well. Custard powder is made of corn flour and vannila extract. You can simply replace custard powder with the above mentioned if you are concerned about the quality of custard powder
