A. If your 15-month-old baby is having frequent motions, cold, and cough, leading to weight loss, it is important to focus on treating the illness first and then working on weight gain. ✅ Steps to Manage Motion, Cold & Cough 1️⃣ Hydration is Key – Give ORS, coconut water, dal water, buttermilk, or light soups to prevent dehydration. 2️⃣ Easy-to-Digest Foods – Feed soft khichdi, mashed banana, curd rice, boiled apple, and moong dal soup to avoid further stomach irritation. 3️⃣ Boost Immunity – Include homemade chicken soup, turmeric milk, ginger-honey mix (for babies above 1 year), and tulsi kadha to fight infections. 4️⃣ Steamed & Warm Foods – Help with digestion and ease congestion. ✅ Best Foods for Weight Gain After Recovery Once your baby feels better, introduce: ✔ Ghee, butter, and cheese for healthy fats. ✔ Eggs, paneer, curd, dal, and fish for protein. ✔ Banana, avocado, sweet potato, and ragi porridge for good carbs. ✔ Soaked almonds, cashews, and walnuts (powdered) for extra calories. ✔ Milkshakes, smoothies, and homemade halwa for energy. 🚨 When to See a Doctor? ❌ If diarrhea lasts more than 3-4 days. ❌ Baby is weak, refusing food/milk, or has high fever. ❌ If weight keeps dropping despite proper food intake. Focus on small, frequent meals and gentle foods while recovering. Let me know if you need more help! 💕
