POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy6 months agoA. To help your 1-year-old gain healthy weight, focus on a nutrient-rich diet with good fats, proteins, and carbohydrates. Here’s how:
✅ Best Foods for Weight Gain
1️⃣ Healthy Fats: Add ghee, butter, cheese, avocado, peanut butter to meals.
2️⃣ Protein-Rich Foods: Give eggs, paneer, curd, dal, chicken, fish for muscle growth.
3️⃣ Carbs for Energy: Include banana, sweet potato, ragi, oats, khichdi, and whole wheat foods.
4️⃣ Dry Fruits & Nuts: Soaked almonds, walnuts, cashews, and dates (powdered if needed).
5️⃣ Dairy Products: Full-fat milk, curd, paneer, and homemade milkshakes.
6️⃣ Frequent Small Meals: Offer food every 2-3 hours in small portions.
7️⃣ Fluids: Fresh fruit juices, soups, coconut water, and smoothies for extra nutrients.
🚨 When to Worry? If your baby is not gaining weight for 3+ months. If they have low appetite, frequent illness, or weakness. If there are developmental delays (not walking, not active).
A healthy, active baby with slow weight gain is usually not a concern. Let me know if you need a diet plan! 💕
