Dr. Chheda - 🦠 Gut health is a game changer. A good microbiome not only helps immunity and digestion, but also helps your child's mood and behavior. Kids with gut imbalance often show food aversions or obsessive food fixations.
💚 Some ways to help your child have a stronger gut is to:
1️⃣ Introduce probiotics early, such as yogurt, kefir, kimchi.
2️⃣ Try to limit antibiotics and discuss with your pediatrician how you can do that.
3️⃣ Rotate foods on a regular basis so there's a good variety of foods in your child's gut.
🍲 And last, you can use bone broth or lentil soup to help heal the gut lining.

Dr. Chheda - 🗣️ Fussy eating is not a personality trait - it's communication. It's how your child is trying to communicate with you about a sensory challenge they might be having.
💚 Some of the root causes can be digestive discomfort, like constipation, or over-reliance on bland carbs and sugars, or under-exposure to certain textures and smells.
🏠 It can also be just how they are responding to any kind of parental stress in the house and any inconsistent routines they are having.
🧠 Your child is not just being difficult.

🏊 Swimming isn't just fun - it's a life-saving skill. Did you know that drowning is a leading cause of accidental death in young children? Absolutely. Swimming is actually a safety - it's more safety than it is fun, 100%.
💚 In addition to safety, it also helps boost your child's confidence. It helps them overcome fear and gain independence. It helps with overall fitness and agility. It's a full body workout, flexibility, and it also helps relieve stress.
🌊 You know what's better than floating in the water? Bye!

Dr. Chheda - 🥦 Being a mom in today's world is a full-time job. Being a mom of a picky eater is a full contact sport.
💚 If you've ever had to negotiate with your child to take one bite of broccoli, we see you. If you've had your toddler throw an organic chicken nugget across the room and a full Michelin starred food critic meltdown, you're not alone.
🧠 This guide will help you decode picky eating with compassion, science, and a holistic mindset.

Set a Consistent Bedtime. Choose a bedtime that allows for adequate sleep and stick to it every night, even on weekends. Create a Bedtime Ritual. Establish a calming pre-sleep routine, such as reading a book, taking a warm bath, or listening to soft music. This helps signal to the child that it’s time to wind down. Make the Sleep Environment Comfortable. Ensure the child’s bedroom is conducive to sleep—quiet, cool, and dark. Consider using blackout curtains and white noise machines if needed. Limit Screen Time Before Bed. Encourage turning off electronic devices at least an hour before bedtime to help children unwind and fall asleep more easily. Be a Role Model. Demonstrate good sleep habits yourself. Children are more likely to follow a routine if they see their parents prioritizing sleep.

Sleep contributes to a strong immune system. Well-rested children are better able to fight off infections and recover more quickly from illness. Regular sleep routines help ensure that children get the rest needed to support their immune function.

Dr. Chheda - 🥚 Your toddler needs about half a gram of protein per kilogram of weight every day. So let's break this down.
👶 A typical one-year-old is about 10 kilos, so they need 5 grams of protein a day. That's all they really need. A glass of milk has about 8 grams of protein in it. An egg has 9 grams of protein in it. So if they're drinking a glass of milk, they're already getting more protein than they need for that particular day.
🥛 Now a typical four-year-old is about 20 kilos, so half of that is 10 grams protein per day. Again, an egg has 9 grams of protein in it. They eat an egg a day, they're gonna get plenty of protein with that egg and everything else combined in it.
🍎 You know what happens to that extra protein if it's not utilized? It turns into fat. They don't need that extra protein. They are not building muscle. After the age of 5 is when they build muscle. Before 5, they're getting all their height. If you see a typical 3-year-old, they are tall and skinny because they are building height. They need lots of fruits and vegetables.
💚 So please focus on the fruits and vegetables for your toddlers. They will get plenty of protein just from that.

Adequate sleep is linked to improved attention and concentration. Children who get enough sleep are more alert and attentive in school, which can enhance their learning abilities and academic performance.

Dr. Chheda - 🤱 Breast milk has lots of antibodies, maternal antibodies that are passed to the baby during nursing. But exactly which antibodies are present in breast milk?
💚 It's the antibodies that the mom is actively making at the moment. It's not past antibodies. So if the mom had an infection or a vaccine years ago, those antibodies don't go through the breast milk.
🩺 It's only the antibodies that the mom is making on that specific day that go through breast milk. So if mom has a cold, an infection, those antibodies are going through the breast milk and will help the child either fight off the infection faster or they don't get it, which is good.
👶 But they're not gonna get past antibodies. So pure breastfeeding to try to get your vaccines into your baby? That's not the way it works.
