A. if child is not gaining proper weight and height you need to consult your doctor to rule out the cause and most of the time it could be because of nutritional deficiencies like nutritional anemia and some other factors like some chronic infection specially urine infection or worm infestation should be checked if required .

A. Offer height increasing foods - dairy products like milk, cottage cheese, curd and yoghurt. Give eggs and chicken. Give soybean and banana. Give nuts and seeds. Give spinach, okra, peas, broccoli and Brussels sprouts. Give fruits like papaya, orange, watermelon, mango, apple and apricot. Give fish and carrots.

A. Please consult your doctor for proper diagnosis so that appropriate treatment can be started at the right time. Nothing can be said for sure without proper physical examination by a doctor. Make sure that your kid engages in physical activity for atleast 30-40 mins in a day.
