A. Dear parent, weight of 8 kg is slightly low for 15 months old baby boy. Baby’s weight at this age should be in the range of 8.3 kg to 12.8 kg. For healthy weight gain, give homemade balanced diet having variety of food groups especially seasonal fruits and vegetables even green leafy vegetables. At least 500 ml of full cream milk every day including milk products like curd, paneer, cheese and breast milk. Continue to breastfeed till 2 years. You can give eggs and non veg foods. Add powdered nuts like almonds to baby’s food. Add ghee to every meal.
