Question
My daughter is a full-term low birth weight infant, weighing 2 kilograms at birth. She is now 5 months old, with a height of 60 centimeters and a weight of 6 kilograms. She has a small appetite and little interest in food, and I am worried about her growth in height. How should I handle this situation?
Answer
Currently, her height and weight are significantly behind, so it is recommended to go to a good pediatric department for examination. After excluding possible disease causes, supplement nutrition. It is suggested to supplement calcium for the child, avoid spicy food, eat more vegetables and fruits, and maintain a balanced diet. As time goes by, her development will gradually catch up. Parents should relax their minds and not worry too much.
