2. he is still on breastfeed. He dont drinks milk at all. I tried force feeding him but he just dont drink. I have tried all the flovours like vanilla, chocolate, kesar pista of Horlicks, pediasure but of no use.
3. He has also shown asthma symtoms twice. His start making sounds when he breadth and catch cold very fast. He has to be hospitalised once when he was 9 months old as his chest was full of cough.

CALCAREA PHOSPHORICA
Phosphate of Lime
One of the most important tissue remedies, and while it has many symptoms in common with Calcarea carb, there are some differences and characteristic features of its own. It is especially indicated in tardy dentition and troubles incident to that period, bone disease non-union of fractured bones, and the anæmias after acute diseases and chronic wasting diseases. Anæmic children who are peevish, flabby, have cold extremities and feeble digestion. It has a special affinity where bones form sutures or symphyses, and all its symptoms are worse from any change of weather. Numbness and crawling are characteristic sensations, and tendency to perspiration and glandular enlargement are symptoms it shares with the carbonate. Scrofulosis, chlorosis and phthisis.
Mind.--Peevish, forgetful; after grief and vexation (Ignat; Phos ac). Always wants to go somewhere.
Head.--Headache, worse near the region of sutures, from change of weather, of school children about puberty. Fontanelles remain open too long. Cranial bones soft and thin. Defective hearing. Headache, with abdominal flatulence. Head hot, with smarting of roots of hair.
Eyes.--Diffused opacity in cornea following abscess.
Mouth.--Swollen tonsils; cannot open mouth without pain. Complaints during teething; teeth develop slowly; rapid decay of teeth. Adenoid growths.
Stomach.--Infant wants to nurse all the time and vomits easily. Craving for bacon, ham, salted or smoked meats. Much flatulence. Great hunger with thirst flatulence temporarily relieved by sour eructations. Heartburn. Easy vomiting in children.
Abdomen.--At every attempt to eat, colicky pain in abdomen. Sunken and flabby. Colic, soreness and burning around navel.
Stool.--Bleeding after hard stool. Diarrha from juicy fruits or cider; during dentition. Green, slimy, hot, sputtering, undigested, with fetid flatus. Fistula in ano, alternating with chest symptoms.
Urine.--Increased, with sensation of weakness. Pain in region of kidneys when lifting or blowing the nose.
Female.--Menses too early, excessive, and bright in girls. If late, blood is dark; sometimes, first bright, then dark, with violent backache. During lactation with sexual excitement. Nymphomania, with aching, pressing, or weakness in uterine region (Plat). After prolonged nursing. Leucorrha, like white of egg. Worse morning. Child refuses breast; milk tastes salty. Prolapsus in debilitated persons.
Respiratory.--Involuntary sighing. Chest sore. Suffocative cough; better lying down. Hoarseness. Pain through lower left lung.
Neck and Back.--Rheumatic pain from draught of air, with stiffness and dullness of head. Soreness in sacro-iliac symphysis, as if broken (Aesc hip).
Extremities.--Stiffness and pain, with cold, numb feeling, worse any change of weather. Crawling and coldness. Buttocks, back and limbs asleep. Pains in joints and bones. Weary when going upstairs.
ALFALFA
Medicago Sativa, California Clover or Lucerne
>From its action on the sympathetic, Alfalfa favorably influences nutrition, evidenced in 'toning up' the appetite and digestion resulting in greatly improved mental and physical vigor, with gain in weight. Disorders characterized by malnutrition are mainly within its therapeutic range, for example, neurasthenia, splanchnic blues, nervousness, insomnia, nervous indigestion, etc. Acts as a fat producer, corrects tissue waste. Deficient lactation. Increases quality and quantity of milk in nursing mothers. Its pronounced urinary action suggests it clinically in diabetes insipidus and phosphaturia; and it is claimed to allay vesical irritability of prostatic hypertrophy. The rheumatic diathesis seems especially amenable to its action.
Mind.--It induces mental exhilaration of buoyancy, i.e, a general feeling of well being; clear and bright, so that all blues are dissipated. Dull, drowsy, stupid (Gels); gloomy and irritable, worse during evening.
Head.--Dull, heavy feeling in occiput, in and above the eyes, worse toward evening. Pain in left side of head. Violent headache.
Ears.--Stuffed feeling in eustachian tubes (Kali mur) at night; patulous in morning.
Stomach.--Increased thirst. Appetite impaired, but chiefly increased even to bulimia. He must eat frequently, so that he cannot wait for regular meals; hungry in forenoon (Sul). Much nibbling of food and craving for sweets.
Abdomen.--Flatulence with distention. Shifting, flatulent pain along colon several hours after meals. Frequent, loose, yellow, painful stools, with burning of flatulence. Chronic appendicitis.
Urine.--Kidneys inactive; frequent urging to urinate. Polyuria (Phos ac). Increased elimination of urea, indican and phosphates.
Sleep.--Slept better than usual, especially in early morning; it induces quiet, reposeful and refreshing sleep.
