A. Good Growth of the child is very important and for this most important is that child should take a healthy diet where its necessary to give a balance diet which should contain all the nutrition required. This is very important for building the immunity also. Encourage for green vegetables fruits dairy products all kinds of dal and other protein containing food items like soyabean eggs etc. Some nutritional deficiencies can be a cause for less appetite like iron deficiency which is most common. Supplements like iguron supplements and multivitamin with lysine like syp zincovit CL can be given for 1-2 monthhs to increase the appetite. Diet counselling is also very important .

A. hello the height of the child is genetic and it is dependent on either of the parent or the grandparent height and just make sure to give your child healthy and nutritious well balance food in the diet and this will help in the growth of the child and absolutely nothing to worry about
