My baby is not sleeping well.
Sir/Madam,
My baby girl age is 1 year 3 month. At present, her weight is 8.8kg. her weight after birth was 2.200 kg. I wanted to know that whether this weight is a healthy weight at present or I need to improve her weight ? Whether she require any vitamins now ?
She doesn't sleep deeply well in day & night time. She wake up instantly after a small sound. So, is there any recommendations for vitamins + sleep medicine for her. ?

Hi,
Her weight is little less for the age. Supplements are not required. Give a healthy diet with vegetables and fruits.
Give plenty of liquids/ water to drink.
Give a calorie dense food in the evening and snacks/ tiffin 1-2 times before going to bed. Reduce milk and increase complementary feeds, she will sleep better.
