Question

Accepted Answer

many times the weight gain of the child depends upon the genetic pattern that is the weight of the parents when they were small and many times the child follows the same genetic pattern so before working kindly meet your doctor once we will tell you whether the weight gain of the child is within normal limits or not

Accepted Answer

Formula feed you can start with if you want to but there is no point giving any package food to the child because you should try to give more of your food to the child as that way your child is going to be in much better way than usual so try to work upon that as that is going to be much more essential and helpful for you at this age
