#asktheexpert - can you please suggest some weight gaining foods for toddlers. My son was unwell recently and has lost a lot of weight.

A. hi dear Ongoing weight loss in young infants is commonly caused by acute infection, problems with feeding, milk protein allergy, malnutrition, or failure to thrive. Gastroesophageal reflux disease, pyloric stenosis, and child neglect are other frequent etiologies. Dehydration associated with any etiology can be severe.
