A. If your 1 year and 4 months old baby is eating well but not gaining weight, it could be due to high metabolism, genetics, or increased activity levels. Some children naturally have a leaner build despite a nutritious diet. To help with healthy weight gain, try: Increasing calorie-dense foods: Add ghee, butter, dry fruits powder, or nut paste to meals. Offering frequent meals: Include snacks like banana, avocado, paneer, and yogurt. Ensuring good digestion: If your baby has frequent loose stools or tummy issues, check for malabsorption or food intolerances. Monitoring growth: If your baby is active, meeting milestones, and has steady growth in height, there’s usually no need to worry. However, if weight gain remains slow, consult a pediatrician to rule out any underlying concerns like deficiencies or metabolism issues.
