A. Hello mom basically toddlers tend to look leaner as now they also gain height and they tend to look leaner as compared to earlier would not suggest to go on chubby ness . Instead observe that your child is active for his age and able to do age appropriate activities, eats well and gaining weight gradually

A. weight and chubby child is not the only indicator of good health. if child is active playful, achieving growth milestones, not falling sick frequently, then do not worry. child's rate of growth is also dependent on genetics or how his parents have been in their childhood. Give your child a balanced diet having variety of food groups: grains and millets 4 servings pulses legumes 1-2 servings seasonal vegetables including green leafy vegetables: 1.5 serving fruits1 serving milk and milk products 500ml sugar 4 tsp oil 5 tsp control intake of process packaged food
