Mom of a 5 yr 11 m old boy4 years ago

Q.

#AskTheExpert My kid is 16months old and he weighs 9.5 Kgs. He eats 3 meals a day n stays active most of the time. No a very active kid. My concern is his weight and that he hasn't started walking yet. Is it something to worry about? If yes, what should be done?

A. Hi, walking can happen until 18 months so you can wait for another couple of months and see. Expose your baby to sunlight. Give five solid feed in a day in a smaller quantity and the interval of four hours. Give more fibre and calcium rich food. And give adequate liquid like fresh fruit juice made at home, buttermilk, coconut water, milkshakes. You can start giving all type of food which you prepare at home since your baby has completed one year.Write Your Answer Here
