Question
My baby is about to turn one year old. Their daily diet is normal, consisting of congee and formula milk, and their bowel movements are also normal. However, they only weigh eight kilograms, and I’m worried if it’s too light and if it needs to be checked.
Answer
At one year old, a baby weighing eight kilograms may be slightly on the light side, but since every child’s growth and development is different, as long as their intelligence and activity levels are normal, there may be no need for special treatment. You can take them to a pediatrician for a comprehensive check-up. If everything is normal, there’s no need to worry; just continue to observe.
