Hello, Firstly being thin doesn't mean she is unhealthy. i have been a thin girl all my life though it is another thing that now I am struggling with my weight. ;p If your girl is active and eating well I do not think you need to worry. Anyway, first identify the reason why she is low in weight. I think, you can give her appetite increasing syrup after consulting with her paediatrician. Here is a link, please go through it, I think it will help you a great deal in adding things to your daughter's diet that can help her gain weight. http://blog.zisboombah.com/2012/04/14/skinny-kids-boost-meals-for-healthy-weight-gain/

Have you tried feeding her protein-rich foods like eggs, chicken and beef? You can try them and slowly you'll notice that she's gaining weight. Also, make some bento meals and be artistic in serving the food so that she'll be delighted to eat.

Ok lng thin as long as di sakitin. Try mo mosegor vita. Nung nagtake nyan anak ko for 2 months lang naging chubby cheeks. Di sya talaga tumaba pero tumangkad.

If both parents are thin or one of you is physically slim... Maybe, there is nothing to worry. it runs in the blood. As ling as she is not getting sick.

Ask pedia, and encourage to eat healthy food like fruits and vegetables
