Hi
I have a 1yr old baby.Her name is Rajii.She looks very thin.She is eating ok.I have give her a health mix which contains ragi,wheat,rice,barely at around 9:00am,then around 11:00am i feed her my milk then she takes a nap for an hour.Around 12:30pm i give her dhal,rice with veggie(beans,carrot,peas).Then around 4:30pm i give apple or pears or banana and i feed her my milk.Then around 8:30pm i give her two idilies with yogurt.Then at around 11:00 she drinks my milk and goes to sleep.Is this pattern right?,or do i have to increase her food.I have also started giving her half egg in the afternoon twicw a week.I don't know her weight exactly.she was 15pounds at 9months.Please kindly help
Shalu replied. Devi! if u give milk at 11 , how can she be hungry at 12:30. I think your milk might not be sufficient for the baby. Manju , you are not giving enough milk for the baby. At this age they need to drink 16 to 20 ozs of cows milk every day. Babies gain weight with milk, ghee, cheese and Dal.
My son is also one year old and he eats very less. He is a picky eater. He is 19lbs now. He is still on cerelac twice a day and mostly milk. May be this helps. Manju replied. Hi Devi
