Hi Sapna... I faced the same problem my baby was 1. 6 but always refuses to eat only demands for BM. I stopped feeding him. He became very cranky for 2 3 days didn't eat anything for hole 2 days except taking water. I made him sleep by watching different videos or by moving in car. But after 2 days he stats taking food in small amount. He starts taking cow milk also. And wid in 10 days he start eating when he feels hungry.. But u have to be strong that if you baby is crying do not offer her BM.

hi Sapna Adsul ! I can completely understand your concern.. force feeding her made her further averse to food. begin from scratch.. make. meal time happy time.. narrate a story , show picture books, talk a lot. let her associate food with positivity and happiness. as doctor rightly said avoid force feeding her and don't run after her she would soon learn to express herself and tell u when she is hungry.. also force feeding would have a negative impact on her psyche in the longer run .please relax and think of ways to make her eat food happily. dont loose out yr tempers and let it be happy times for u both.. happy parenting!!
