My LO is 1.9 yr old. She does not show any interested in eating food or milk. And whenever she gets chance to eat soil, paint and chalks , she eats everything and then she suffers from diahorrea .It is happening from 6-7 months. She had loose motions 6 times in past 7 months. She had blood test and ultrasound last month. In those tests, hb was 6.9 only and in ultrasound, the spleen was enlarged in size... What should we do next please suggest...

Hi,
Consult a nearby paediatrician. Child requires a complete physical examination and iron supplements. Low Hb is the reason for reduced appetite and eating soil.
