#AskTheExpert Hello I am mother of 2yrs and 1 month baby. He is not gaining weight.. He is active but moody in eating..sometimes eats well sometimes doesn't eat only.. . His current weight is 11 kgs only... Since an year he was at 10.5kgs only.. Not on breastfeed from February 2021. He likes nutella in milk.. So I give him that and add some horlicks to it.. Is it ok?

A. Hai good afternoon !! No need to worry your baby is in ideal weight. Along with milk feed other dairy products ghee/cheese/butter, curd, paneer, fruits and vegetables,egg, dry fruits,dal, grains, millets adequate water and fluids for complete nutrition. Add dry fruits mix powder/dates syrup/almonds powder with milk instead of health drinks . Use Nutella with bread/dosa combination once or twice a week daily feeding might cause mucus.
