POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy6 months agoA. Your 3-year-5-month-old baby has a weight of 11 kg and height of 87 cm, which is below the average for his age. Ideally, at this age:
✅ Average weight: 13-16 kg
✅ Average height: 95-102 cm
Since your child's growth is on the lower side, here’s what you can do:
💪 1. Diet Plan for Weight & Height Gain
🍛 Morning:
Milk with Dry Fruits Powder (Almonds, Cashews, Walnuts, Dates) Banana or Mango Shake
🍲 Lunch:
Ghee Rice / Dal Khichdi / Roti with Vegetables Paneer, Tofu, or Chicken for protein A bowl of curd
🥛 Evening Snack:
Homemade Laddoo (Ragi, Gond, Sesame, or Jaggery-Protein Laddoo) Sprouted Moong Chaat
🍽️ Dinner:
Vegetable Soup / Dalia / Oats Egg or Lentil Soup
🔹 Iron-Rich Foods: Spinach, Beetroot, Pomegranate, Chana
🔹 Protein for Growth: Paneer, Eggs, Chicken, Dal
🔹 Calcium for Bones: Milk, Cheese, Curd, Ragi
🏃♂️ 2. Activities to Increase Height & Strength
✔ Stretching Exercises – Helps in height growth
✔ Hanging on a Bar – Makes bones stronger
✔ Skipping, Cycling & Running – Boosts growth hormones
✔ Sunlight Exposure – For Vitamin D (Bone Growth)
🔴 When to See a Doctor?
🚨 If child is not gaining weight even after good nutrition
🚨 If he looks weak, pale, or falls sick often
🚨 If appetite is very low
A pediatrician might suggest tests to check iron, calcium, vitamin D, or thyroid levels.
