#asktheexpert My Son is 3yrs and he is weighing only 10.9kg. He eats his proper meal plan, but he is not gaining weight.

A. Hai good morning !! Yes baby is under weight,if baby is active and achieving milestones then dont worry check he is growing height or not. Banana,mango,potato,beans,peas,pulses,dry fruit and nuts powder,cerelac,idly,urad dal ladoo,ghee,cheese,butter,curd,paneer,egg,meat helps in weight gain. Dal with ghee,curd / paneer/egg/meat ,dry fruit ladoo/barfi every day along with full fat milk helps a lot. Check with doctor if baby is not gaining height also thyriod,calcium deficiency sometimes cause growth delay even if diet is good.
