Accepted Answer

hi mom. 
as the child is very active at this stage they will not gain much weight even if they will have good amount of food or healthy food. 
do not worry mum as majority kids will have this kind of weight and nothing to worry on that
this stage baby will be very active so it's always little difficult to gain weight. 
feed the baby with one teaspoon of ghee daily and also includes milk products such as cheese ghee butter curd buttermilk. 
give full cream milk for the baby. 
give vegetables which are sweet potato potato green peas and more of green leafy vegetables. 
give egg chicken and soup
