1. my daughter is 20 month old and she's still not walking i mean she takes some 10-12 steps on her own but she's not walking perfectly. 2. she misses her grandparenst and her friends a lot here so i try distracting her by taking her to a park or chucky cheese can u guys suggest some other place where i can take her so that she can like her stay here she really feels lonely though i try spending most of my time with her. 3 here in the US a ped said when she turns her neck its very funny how she does, never in india any doctor complained of that and even i never saw that. 4 she just weights 19 pounds for a 20 month old baby she eats a healthy diet and i have no complains on she's not eating or anything its just that she's not putting on weight. 5 n last i still breastfeed her and her ped in US is absolutely against breastfeeding she says i should stop that immediately but i'm not sure as in India her ped says you should feed till the baby is 2. i do give her whole milk too.|||If you feel comfortable breatfeeding do not stop. In the US not many mothers breast feed past 1 but it is good if you check out this website for that ok. Do what is right for your baby and look for an indian doctor that maybe more fimilar with your culutre. http://parenting.ivillage.com/tp/tpweani鈥?/a> As far as talking her places when my daughter was young I would take her to the library and to the planetarium they have many programs for small children and shows and it is very educational look on line for where it is in your city as well as look in the library in the childrens section for listings of play groups and she can find many friends there to play with . Hope that helps|||1) I started walking same time as my younger sister (1 year younger). i think i'm ok. for my neice, we had her pushed around the TV stand. and in a few days she really improved. 2) form friends with children same age. work or apartment or neighborhood, there are other people. other children at the park? 3) keep watching. what's the worst case? 4) what percentile is she for age? 5) she's eating solid foods and a decent diet right?|||Pediatrician who doesn't like breastfeeding is a lunatic. The World Health Organization says a minimum of two years. I nursed both our children for 4 years. Totally normal and healthy.|||check out gymboree! We love it! also this website is great...you can find all sorts of things to do with your toddler. www.gocitykids.com good luck!|||As far as the breastfeeding goes it has been determined that breast milk is no more better for a child past the age of about 6 months than anything else. Because of the lack of weight gain it is obvious your child needs more solid foods and that your breastmilk is inadequate for her. She's not healthy. The neck thing could be a result of lack of nutrients in her. I very strongly suggest you return to the doctor and have them explain EVERYTHING fully to you. You're obviously not understanding. I would suggest that you stop worrying about her missing her family back in India and concentrate on getting her healthy.
