My daughter weight gain is less since very active at day time and sleep too soon by 7Pm -7Am .
If any fault in the way i m giving plz give suggestion , since its my first baby. Asha replied. You seem to be feeding him every 1.5 -2 hrs. Try giving more gap after solid foods ,my daughter used to reject food too, when I increased the gap , it worked well and she eats more.

Keep trying new recipes often and see what he likes most
like boiled mashed veggies with little salt,jeera ,ghee mixed with cerelac or just like that as a soup.
Also gradually increase the ccereal intake from 2-3 spoons

if you are in india(bangalore) you can try ragi mix called \" Manna\" , its excellent source of nutrition, but its constipating for some babies so slowly introduce starting from 1/4 spoon a day for 3 days a week and gradually increase.

Hope this helps
