Weight issue
Hello doctor,
My daughter is 6 year 9 months old and weighs 30 kg. Her activity level is good. Eats healthy diet.
In her 2nd and 3rd years she had little much junk food and less activity, but after that she had good food habits.
Her birth weight is 3.6. Her weight grown gradually from birth not suddenly.
I am concerned is her weight more to her age or is it normal?
Hello,
By your information I conclude that your daughter is in overweight criteria..
It's not sufficient to reach any final conclusion..
In this case other parameters of her body and clinical examination is also very important.
I advice you do consult nearby Pediatrician..
