From: a worried mum, Seeing the view of my 7mths daughter's weight was 5kg. She is at 1 percentile which is low. She is drinking well 150ml 3 hrsly and eating solid bits n bits. The gp doctor advised me to see specialist at kk hospital to review my daughter's weight. The doctor said might be something is wrong with her organs inside which he think it is best to check it out. But I find that it is too young for my baby. Any mummies have the same situation as me as i am getting worried for her weight? As for me, i am a skinny mum eat alot but never grow fat.

Hi mummy, Did ur baby hit every milestone? Like can she sit up w/o assisted? Crawl? Roll over? Did she always been quite cranky? If everything is fine. I dont think its a big issue.

For 7 months baby its better that u can feed more than 800ml a day or at least 800ml. 2 times solid (dont need to give so much as they are only supplementary food, BM / formula still the main source) Sometimes baby poop many times in a day also affect their weight gain. Try to give formula milk, for solid food u can try give more avocado
