ExpertDr Disha PatelAyurvedic Physician4 years agoA. weight is less,
Give protein rich diet...as protien is building unit of our body. Like- all pulses, eggs, all milk and milk products, banana, youghrt, beans, chickpeas, tofu, nuts.These foods are important for your child’s bone growth, muscle development and stimulate body growth.
As they are rich in proteins and minerals, including them in a child’s diet ensures increase in height and weight. In fact, dried fruits and nuts are the most ideal food for undernourished children to gain weight as they provide all the required micro-nutrients along with calories and fats.
Give all seasonal fruits and vegetables.
Do Consult your paedritician to rule out underlying cause of underweight and treatment accordingly.

Neha SharmaMom of a 11 yr 2 m old boy4 years agoA. Hello,it's normal that fussy eaters always are underweight ,and my advice is if you stop breastfeeding then only baby will start having cow's milk or other drinks and if your baby will be hydrated then only baby will also feel hungry and to increase appetite you can give Aptivate syrup to your baby.
