[|Human|] Hi doc, my 20month old baby gal had fever on this Sat and Sunday, I showed to doc and they advised Crocin ds syrup.frm Monday she is having no fever, but she is refusing food totally and want to have my milk and wants to be in my lap always,. What shud I give for her appetite and is this normal in kids?
[|AI|]  HI...it is very normal kids to lose some appetite during recovery form illness or convalescence. Do not worry. They will regain the appetite in another 1-2 weeks. If the kid is otherwise active you need not worry. 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 -
