Slow Weight Gaining
Dear Doctor,
My baby girl was born on October 11th, weighing 3 kg. However, her weight gain has been slow since the 2nd month. As of May 3rd, her weight was 5.7 kg, and now, at 9 months, her weight is 6.4 kg.
Despite being playful and having adequate food and breakfast, we're concerned about her slow weight gain. We've consulted pediatricians, but haven't seen any improvement or identified the reason.
Could you please suggest what we can do or which specialist we should consult for her slow weight gain?

Red spot on diaper couple of times only
My 2.5 months old baby boy had mild red spots on diaper 3-4 times last month. We had done urine report which shows bacteria present and RBC count as 5. Doctor has given antibiotics for 5 days and suggested for sonography. Is the sonography really required for small baby? Is there any side effect of sonography? Also doctor has given EUMOSONEM M for local penis application for redness. Can we use this cream. Please refer attached report and photo.

My newborn daughter got vaccinated in UAE for birth and 2nd month dose. Now her 4th month dose is due in August and we need to travel to India during that time.
The vaccination due is, Hexavalent, PCV 13, Rotavirus (RV1/RV5).
I want to know if the same vaccine is available in INDIA and If she can take it.

Introducing solid food
My son is 5 month old. He has good head control. He can hold his head up and move his head to any side but he still wobbles quite a lot. Is it normal? Also he can roll from back to tummy but he can't roll from tummy to back. He can hold his head up while tummy time. So is he ready for assisted sitting or do I need to wait until he can roll from tummy to back? How do I know if he is ready for assisted sitting?
