IUGR baby retarted growth
My daughter was born iugr with weight 2.3 kg. She is going to be 2.5 year old and her current weight is 9.8 kg and height is 84 cm. She has been getting sick every month. Also deworming has not been done and she has had constipation when she was 5 months old. I am not giving any supplements. Any diet changes for increasing weight and height.
Hello madam
Weight of the baby appears to be low for age.There is no magic pill which can increase the weight of baby except nutritious diet.Please make sure that baby receives sufficient Iron and protein rich diet and do not rely on multivitamin supplements promoted by pharma companies.
SYP.BANDY(400mg/10ml) 10ml should be given as single dose if deworming is not done.Hope this helps!
