A. My 10 month baby faced same problem. She had put on only 1 kg from 5th month till now. My paediatric suggested to feed her solids (grains) every 2 hours when awake and reduce giving her breast milk. I saw difference in 2 weeks and she has gained weight now. Doc also suggested to give Essum cerelac to baby daily 3-4 times

A. Hai good afternoon !! Check if baby getting sufficient feed. As baby is seven months old feed semi solids twice a day and rest of the day milk either breastfeed or formula feed. Fruits and vegetables puriees/mashes, cerelac, dal kichdi, oats, Dalia, sooji porridge, idly, Ragi.. Banana, apple,idly, ragi, cerelac with pulses, grains dry fruits powder, using ghee/cheese butter , rice porridge /kheer helps in increasing baby's weight.
