Asking for Self, Female, 30 years old, Lahore
My baby is 6.5 months MashALLAH. She weighs about 7.1kg. Is she underweight? I have started weaning and give her sooji, porridge, rice, custard, banana, potato, apple and carrots. She is on motherfeed and takes a single bottle 3 ounce per day . Everyone says that she looks underweight and she should be taking more formula milk. Please guide
She is slightly underweight,l would like to see her around 8 or 8.5 kg ,you need to increase her calories , give her on or two more bottle feeds ,continue with the rest , of her feed , also give her some iron supplements and ACD drops, one drop once a day for 5-6 months
Weight of 7.1 kg at 6.5 months of age is a good weight. She is not underweight.
With such a wide array of weaning food she may run into feeding problems. She should still be getting three to four milk feeds with two or max three solid feeds.
good luck...
