Question

My daughter is one year old, weighing 17 pounds, and her height has not been measured but should be close to the lowest standard. I’m wondering if she is underdeveloped and if she needs to take medication to promote growth.

Answer

Based on the description, the baby’s body indicators are still within the normal range. It is recommended to enhance nutritional intake, particularly protein digestion and absorption, and maintain sufficient sleep and appropriate diet. If there are concerns about development issues, it is advisable to consult a professional doctor.
