A. I don’t know why your doctor says that because your child should be 12 kg by the age of 1 and 14 by the age of two looking at the birth weight your child should have been healthy this way it’s really underweight I would suggest you that you get a deficiency test done for your child to know if there is a deficiency which is leading to this kind of a problem so you should go ahead with starting iron and multivitamin for the child in case of need
