mera baby 18 mnth ka h pr uska weight sirf 9.9 kg h.. uska weight kese bdha skti hun??

A. An 18-month-old baby with a weight of 9.9 kg is slightly below average, but if your child is active, playful, and meeting developmental milestones, it may not be a major concern. To help with healthy weight gain, focus on offering high-calorie, nutritious foods in small, frequent meals throughout the day. Here are some tips: Healthy Fats: Add ghee, butter, or coconut oil to dals, khichdi, porridge, and vegetables. Protein-rich foods: Offer eggs, paneer, curd, dal, moong dal chilla, and well-cooked chicken or fish (if non-veg). Fruits & Vegetables: Include mashed banana, avocado, sweet potato, and boiled/steamed carrots or pumpkin. Dairy: Full-fat milk, curd, cheese, and milkshakes with fruit and dry fruits. Dry Fruits Powder: Mix almond, walnut, and cashew powder in porridge or milk for extra nutrition. Avoid junk foods: Stick to homemade, fresh foods and limit packaged snacks and sweets. Make mealtimes fun, let the baby self-feed, and don’t force food. Gradual and steady weight gain is better than sudden changes. If appetite remains poor or weight doesn't improve despite good feeding, consult a pediatrician to rule out nutritional deficiencies or other concerns.
