How To Gain Weight To A Baby?

My 7 months old baby weighs 7kg. She's tall & skinny. Plus very active too. Major headache for us. She's able to stand holding by onto something, sit, crawl around the house & starting to cruise. My doc said she burns a lot of energy. How do I make her gain more weight??

Hi...Thank you for consulting in Health Care magic. ACTIVE IS A WELL KID. But unfortunately there are not medicines in medical science which can increase weight. I suggest you give her cereal and pulses based diet and soft porridges with lots of ghee in it. Thus the calorie dense food might help her gain weight. Hope my answer was helpful for you. I am happy to help any time. Further clarifications and consultations on Health care magic are welcome. If you do not have any clarifications, you can close the discussion and rate the answer. Wish your kid good health.
