Weight Problems

2016-07-25 10:31:12
My Son is 20 Months old however he is not gaining weight. I have consulted other Doctors but they have same answer that weight can be only increased by only proper Food & Diet. No medicine or supplement can help to increase weight. My Son's diet is normal, he eats everything approx 5-6 times ( 3 times milk n 3 time eating). Kindly advice if any thing can be done in this matter. I am eager to consult to you. Please assist.
