What's the doctor's recommendation to help my 1 year old gain weight?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You do not want to: If your child is truly well underweight, what we call failure to thrive, a doctor's evaluation is needed to rule out causes. Otherwise the child will gain weight as he or she matures. You do not want to end up with an obese child by pushing high calorie food as him or her.
