Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy3 years agoA. it is important for you to know that the weight of the child depends upon the genetic patterns and by that pattern only the weight gain in child is seen.
It also depends upon the diet the child is taking.
So it is advisable that you should meet the doctor who will tell you whether there is anything to worry or not and whether the child requires any health supplements.
the child should be given different flavours and recipes made from cereals pulses vegetable milk and fruits daily in small amount.
you can add ghee groundnuts dryfruits in the diet and this will help in improving the weight of the child.
You can go through many recipes for children in different flavour and taste for your child on firstcry
give more water and fibre diet for constipation and if it is not improving you have to give constipation medicine

AbhayaMom of a 15 yr 8 m old boy3 years agoA. Hi mom
Less intake of water and fiber food is the reason for constipation
Increase the water intake and fiber rich food like Papaya pear plum prunes carrot dalia cabbage roti etc to get relief from constipation.
Avoid giving food that contains maida
Give ghee in warm milk before sleeping as natural laxative
