How to help 8 month old baby gain weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Infant weight issue: It is important to review your baby's history and complete physical exam with your doctor to see how the baby has grown since birth. Not only weight but also length. Review eating patterns and what you feed the baby. Review the any unusual symptoms that may have developed along with making sure the baby is reaching milestones in growth for age. This helps determine if there is a problem or not.
