A. It’s absolutely normal, many many kids go through this phase, right now I’m also going through this, it’s very stressful and frustrating I understand but pls don’t worry keep giving eventually they will accept 9.6 is a good weight only, my baby is much lesser than that and I worry a lot but my doctor made me understand it’s absolutely normal behaviour in toddlers. As long as the milestones are met on time u have reason to worry pls don’t put the baby through pain for no reason by doing blood work just wait for some more time.

A. If your child is not going to eat well of course the weight in the overall growth of the child is going to get affected so currently I will only recommend you to have a proper physical assessment including some blood test for the child to know the right reason behind it and accordingly further help can be provided to you
