[|AI|]  Hello, Let me begin by saying that all tonics and medicines are unnecessary.  All attempts at forcing her to eat must be stopped.  There must be no persuasion on your part, no coaxing, no bribing, no threatening, and no punishment. All tricks to make her eat must be absolutely stopped.  No walking about the room. She should sit up at the table and eat the food or leave it.  Mother, you avoid anxious looks at the plate and no need for praise when she eats her dinner. No negative attitude if she does not eat and no suggestion that she is being naughty.  Your daughter should not be prevented from doing what she wants to do because she has not eaten her dinner.  If she does not want the meal, it should be taken from her. There should be nothing between meals. This includes milk.  She must wait until the next regular mealtime.  If it happens again at next meal, she should still be left without food.  She will soon eat when she gets hungry and no one makes a fuss about what she eats.  You may allow her to eat some meat course, then dessert, and return to the meat. Her mother, you, should make it plain that the food in front of her is all there is and that if she does not like it, she can leave, but that is all there is. Make her food attractive, with bright colors.  Put a small amount on her plate and let her ask for more.  There should be variety, so she does not get tired of one food.  With her poor appetite, give her no more than a pint of milk per day.  She should be allowed to help prepare the meal, helping with potatoes, fruit, and pastry.  Allow to have meals with her parents or other child Chat Doctor.  If she is playing with her food when the rest of the table has been cleared and washing up has been done, her food should be removed.  If she cries, make no fuss, just allow a reasonable amount of time for her to eat, and then without any threats or argument, remove the food. See that she gets as much outdoor exercise as possible and avoid over-fatigue. A healthy three-year old needs 11-12 hours of sleep over a 24-hour period.  Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
