Shelly replied. Just because YOU think your baby is underweight... Unless your a doctor... listen to your doctor. I am in the medical field and have a 2yr old that is only 22lbs. She is very slender and tall. as I am 6'2. She will be tall and slim. As long as your baby eats and has normal bowel movements. His weight isnt a bother unless your doctor sees a concern. Homo milk is not advised until after 12-13mo of age, as they cannot digest it properly and could cause reation or intestinal issues. Rachana replied. Hi Goldie,
My son is also 11 months and weighs 18.5 lbs. He was 8.5 at birth. He's a little fussy when it comes to eating/drinking milk but otherwise he's very active and healthy. Initialy we too would worry at his weight gain but we don't. I guess it better for a child to be healthy than have weight.
