A. At 25 months (just over 2 years), a weight of 11 kg for a child born at 3 kg is within the acceptable range, though slightly on the lower side. On average, by 2 years, children weigh around 4 times their birth weight, which would be about 12 kg in your child’s case. So 11 kg is not too low, but it may indicate slightly slow weight gain. ✅ What to Do: Focus on nutrient-rich foods like ghee, full-fat milk, curd, paneer, eggs, bananas, sweet potatoes, dal, and seasonal fruits. Offer frequent meals and snacks every 2–3 hours. Avoid junk food, excess juice, and snacks with low nutrition. Encourage active play to stimulate appetite. If the child is active, growing in height, and reaching milestones, then weight alone is not a big concern. However, if you're noticing poor appetite, frequent illness, or delayed development, consult a pediatrician to rule out nutritional deficiencies or underlying issues.
