A. baby weight is good. but your hb is low. take iron supplement regularly without missing. some iron rich foods are : Red meat, pork and poultry. Seafood. Beans. Dark green leafy vegetables, such as spinach. Dried fruit, such as raisins and apricots. Iron-fortified cereals, breads and pastas. Peas. iron-fortified bread and breakfast cereal. nuts and seeds. dried fruit. wholemeal pasta and bread. legumes — such as mixed beans, baked beans, lentils and chickpeas. dark leafy green vegetables — such as spinach, silver beet and broccoli.

A. Madam I believe the weight gain of the child is quite less as per the age also your haemoglobin levels are less so I would suggest you that you take any good iron supplement suggested by the doctor with a juice like pomegranate or orange juice whatever is there that’s going to help in double absorption of the iron and you need to work upon a balanced diet to increase the weight of the child for that you should consult a nutritionist
