Hi doc, Please help and I do hope to get a response my baby is 1 year old and 8 months, but her weight is only 9.5kgs. She has 1 cup of rice serving, 1 handful of proteins and 1cup of fruits and vegetables per serving 3 times a day. She has 2 healthy snacks with formula milk thrice a day about 8oz. She is also breastfed thrice at night, but our pedia mentioned she is below her weight requirements for her age. We tried everything, but that is just it.
