Child is fussy to eat

Hi, My son is very fussy in eating or drinking milk or any drink. He doesn't want to eat anything and he wants only snacks to eat. I am so worred about that. I have tried many child specialist and they say the child will eat on his own. He had his tonsules operation in 2008 and he says always that feels like vomitting. What is the solution for this.

His weight is between the 10-25th percentile and his height is below the 5th percentile for his age from the measurements written. It is frustrating when your child will only eat a small range of food. Suggest trying to make regular milkshakes with chocolate milk and ice cream blended. Sometimes 'picky eaters' will accept these milkshakes when they do not like regular milk. The most important aspect is to relax at meals and not to force him to eat. Let him eat what he wants no matter how limited. Suggest a daily chewable children's multi-vitamin if his eating pattern continues. Slowly introduce new foods, and if he does not want it, do not make a fuss over it. Let it go and try in a few weeks. Hoped this helped you.

Recently I complained because my daughter did not want to eat or drink her milk, she only 6& half months old.
After trying everything possible to make her drink, I decided to stop trying, if she was hungry she will eat...I bit my lip and carry out this plan. I was desperate at first because all she wanted to eat and drink just didn't even come close to what a 6-7 month old should be eating...anyway I let it go on for a few days, and I respected the time frame everyday when I try to give her the bottle, whatever she drank I accepted.
after I noticed that she started to finish the bottle and it would seems that she would take more so I started increasing the amount but slowly not too much and I am happy to say it's working!
P.S. It helps not to show that you care if he finish or not, don't even look when you are feeding and don't hold the bottle vertically, let it lie horizontally so he have to suck if he wants, I know it's hard but you have let it become important for him to eat and that he is not doing you a favor by eating.
I hope he will start eating again soon, I know how frustrating it is when your child won't eat

p.s. additional info, I've noticed that my daughter will always drink after a bath, and will go to sleep immediately afterwards, maybe you could also time your feeding to coincide with bath and bed.
