A. Hello mam The birth weight ideally triples by 1 year so it’s little less but if the child is active and alert then it’s not much to worry but yes weight should increase a bit post 12 months First get a Health check up done by paediatrician to rule out any other cause Improve on his quality of food and not quantity Do not force feed the child Give small and frequent meals Foods like banana with milk, daliya with milk and jaggery, Chikoo, cheese, butter, ragi, oats, green vegetables, eggs, paneer, full fat milk and curd, dry fruits, peanuts help in weight gain so include all these food in the diet
