A. if child is not gaining proper weight 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 anemiagy and some other factors like malabsorption any chronic disease like congenital heart disease or some chronic infection speycially urine infection or worm infestation should be checked if required .

A. Hello dear parent! Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well and demand for better health, nutrition and hydration. Get your baby personally examined by the doctor and seek further advice. Maintain a good personal hygiene for your baby and follow your doctor’s advice diligently. Good luck and take care.
