A. For a 1 year and 2 months old baby, healthy weight gain is best supported by a balanced diet rich in nutrients, combined with regular feeding and a nurturing environment. Start by offering a variety of soft, easy-to-eat foods that include proteins like well-cooked lentils, mashed beans, eggs, and yogurt. Incorporate healthy fats such as ghee, butter, or avocado, which provide essential calories for growth. You can also offer iron-rich foods like mashed spinach, peas, or fortified cereals, as iron is important for overall development. Make feeding times pleasant and avoid pressuring your baby to eat, as this can create negative associations with food. Offer small, frequent meals and snacks throughout the day to meet their energy needs. Breastfeeding or formula feeding can continue alongside solids to ensure adequate nutrition. Encourage your baby to be active and explore, as movement supports muscle growth and appetite. Lastly, regular check-ups with your pediatrician will help track your baby’s growth and address any concerns early. If weight gain remains slow, your doctor might recommend specific nutritional supplements or further evaluation.
