[|Human|] Hello Doc,We just returned from a long trip that required us to travel to 3-4 different cities in India. Like all of us, my 2.5 year old daughter had 3-4 loose motions in the last couple of days. She is as active as she used to be. However, her appetite has reduced to almost half of what it used to be. She wont even touch her cup of milk. The only thing she eats without a fuss is oranges, which I let her have as much as she wants. I am really worried she will turn weak if this carries on. Is this normal? Should I give her time and not force food on her?
[|AI|]  Hi... Thank you for consulting in Chat Doctor. I take this opportunity to tell you certain scientific facts and relieve your distress -1. An active is a well kid even if she/ he is not eating well.2. Development of a kid is as important as, or I would say even more important than growth alone.3. As the kids grow their interest in food decreases and interest in play activities increases so that they eat small quantity and run away to play. As parents, we need to be more patient and feed than less quantity but more liquors per day.4. This age rather than the quantity of the food I suggest you concentrate more on the number of times you feed her and also make whatever you feed her calorie dense by adding good amount of ghee to it.5. I suggest you not to use appetite stimulants on long run as they may cause Chat Doctor. Regards -
