POOJA KOTHARIExpecting Mom due in 1 month3 months agoA. For a 9-month-old underweight baby, focus on nutritious, calorie-rich foods alongside breast milk or formula. Offer mashed or finely chopped foods like well-cooked rice, lentils (dal), mashed vegetables (carrot, pumpkin, potato), mashed fruits (banana, apple, pear), and soft cooked eggs or paneer if introduced. Include healthy fats like a little ghee or butter in meals for extra calories. Frequent small meals—5 to 6 times a day—help with digestion and weight gain. Avoid sugary or junk foods. Continue regular breastfeeding or formula feeding and consult your pediatrician for personalized advice and to rule out any medical issues.
