Dear parents,
Weight gain in 2nd year in whole 12month is only 1000gm.
Height gain in second year is 10cm in whole year .
According to me stop milk from 8amto8pm and give semisolid diet like Dal,dalia,khicdi alu kela rice,apple,upama,halwa,patolia,rab,kadi idle poha satu custard etc and from 80pmto8am give mother milk is preferable if not give top milk Withoutwater and add sugar as per your taste.
For your knowledge 100ml milk gives 70calories of energy 100ml juices give 55calories of energy and 100gm of semisolid diet gives 350calories of energy .
2nd molar erupt at age of 30weeks. So try to give your kid semisolid diet.
