Stop bottle feeding and breastfeeding,if giving them. Give just 2 top milk feeds using a glass or spoon and katori and 4 solid meals including curd and Banana in the diet. No specific diet will increase the weight,but following above mentioned diet plan,and regularity in meal times will help. Maintain hygiene in feeds.
