A few tips
by: Baby Help Line

Hi!

Yes, 10 kg is below average, but how long is he? If he is also shorter than average, then maybe he simply is a little fellow.

But if he is skinny, and praticularly if he is not gaining weight as he should, you can try adding a tea spoon of butter or a good oil to his meals.

Some young toddlers are so active and so busy that they don't really take their time to eat. Then adding a little bit of fat to the food as well as offering healthy snacks on the go are great ways to help them get the nutrition they need. Bananas, for example are great!

Remember though, that he is now in an age when he should start loosing his baby chubbiness, That's normal (although, not to become really skinny, of course).

Good luck!
