A. Ideal weight of a 2.6 years old girl should be between 12.6 to 13.5 kgs depending on eating habits and physical activities. Few babies are fussy and picky eaters and best way to give them a nutritious diet is to mix different foods together and then feed. Like you can make mixed vegetable soup, veggies khichdi, oats with sliced fruits and nuts, chicken soup, boiled eggs, omelette, paneer gravy with chapati, besan and beetroot cheela, idli-dosa with sambhar, milkshakes with dry fruits, fruit juices, coconut water, ghee, etc. Start giving healthy finger foods like veg cutlet, fish fingers, chapati with ghee, etc. as it will develop chewing habit.
