Asking for Other, Male, 1.6 years old, Karachi

Height : 30 Weight : 8kg Age-: 1.6 Born underweight with 1.8 kg at 36weeks. What healthy weight gaining things can I give him to eat? What milk should I give instead of buffalos milk? He is on BF with semi solids, pureed form

General Practitioner in Islamabad - Dr. Zeba Nasir

He is underweight for his age. You need to increase his diet and include solid food. It's better to start him a formula feed as he is not gaining enough weight from his current diet. Add yogurt, boiled eggs, Rice, roti, fruits, potatoes, red meat, beans, pulses in his diet. Semi solids are given below 1 year. He is older enough to have normal diet. Also give him small portions 4-6 times daily and get consultation for more details.
