Asking For Self, Female 28, Karachi
Baby birth weight was 3kg Now my baby boy is 1 year old and C.W is 7kg... Is my baby underweighted? although he's active Masha'Allah
Normally at one year of age wt should be 10 kg, may be you’re giving mostly milk, try to give solid food like egg, khichry, qeema, rice , choree, and seasonal fruits, and milk at night only.
- At one year wt 8- 9 kg.
- Continue Breast Feed.
- Give him soft food i-e Yogurt, Khachri, Banana, Custard, Crealac, Egg,Sooji etc
- Start to give Vit.D drops, 2 drops daily.
- Vidyallin drops, 5 drops 12hourly.
Don't worry about teething.

Your baby is lacking 1-2 kg weight according to age, which is not that significant, it is a very common issue in pakistan due to improper weaning, try to give more solid feed( bread, roti salan, egg, rice, potatoes, fruits, kheer, custard, feerni etc) to your child and monitor weight gain monthly. If with dietary efforts there is no improvement then you should book a video consultation for detailed history. Thanks
Thank you for consultation.
The birth weight of your child was okay. Current weight is a little bit less than expected. Expected weight is 10 kg. At this stage, he is not considered underweight.
The gain of weight of a child depends on may factors. Food intake is important but pattern and type of food is also very important. Apart from weight, other things like height and built of a child has to be considered. Some children gain height so their weight gain is not much.
You can discuss more in detail if required.

After one yr shoukd be 10kg ideal but no need to wory
Just start with food which you cook in home.
ideally the weight should be 10kg at one year but if the child is active and eats normally then no need to worry.
10 kg is normal weight at one year.if baby is active than don't worry.
No nothing to worry, If he is active.
Don't worry !
