A. Hello mom under nourished and underweight are two different things one is if the child is not active and normal for his age that’s undernourished.. but if he is active and does all activities according to his age that is a good health indicator .. try to present the regular foods in different ways to him and make meal time fun and interesting

A. Dear parent, weight of 9 kg is slightly low for 2 years 2 months old baby. However if your baby is active, playful and achieving all growth milestones then do not worry, it indicates good health.
