What does it mean when a 1 year old hates eating and when he does you have to force it and he will have a bit fit?

Get advice!: Infants have many phases and moods, especially around meals and mealtimes. It is rare for a young child to have an eating problem, and most physical problems impacting eating will usually have other symptoms, and the child will have poor growth. More than likely, the best approach is to sit down and get some good parenting advice about approaching feeding and setting boundaries, and disciipling.

Bit fit: It might be wise to see a pediatrician who can resolve this issue with you to see if the infant has an underlying problem or there is a problem between you and the infant.

Feeding Problems: Feeding problems are common at this age. Solids have been introduced and breast feeding/bottle feeding is decreasing. You can not force your child to eat but should offer him the opportunity to eat a balanced diet 6 times (3 meals and 3 snacks) each day. Do not chase him around with a spoon. You should limit the time of meals to 30 minute whether he eats of does not eat.
