A. I Doubt about that internal problem have already mentioned it so clearly that your child does not eat so you only imagine if a child is not going to eat how the wait is going to increase your child has good height according to the age but wait is absolutely or no no it should be at least 16 to 18 KG consult a nutritionist once for this
