Underweight toddler
My baby is 2.8yrs old but at 9.4kgs. has been the same weight since last year.
her birth weight was 2.6kgs.
very picky eater. only prefers selective nuts, fruits and no veggies. no parathas or curry.
wears clothes one size less, still loose. even ribs can be counted..
however, she is otherwise very cheerful, active and doesn't fall sick very often.
please suggest.

I need to have detailed dietary history as weight of your baby is less for age.
You also need to get some investigations done.
Direct consult would help.
