Weight gain
My daughter is 3 years old and she weighs only 10 kg. She s a pre term baby (1 month before due date) And weighed 2.2 kgs at the time of birth. She eats fruits but refuse veggies. I am very much worried as she look small to her age (height 85 cm). Should i have to consult my doc? She s very active and has a good immunity. I am working. Should i have to resign my job and take care of her? (now her grandma s looking after her till i reach home n the evening)

If she's active physically and feeding normally and gaining weight and height over a period of time,RELAX!!
Just give 2 milk feeds using a glass and 3-4 solid meals a day including curd and Banana in the diet in addition to whatever you prepare at home.
Ensure plenty of physical activity.
