Poor weight of 1 year old
My 1 year old son weighs only 7.5 kg. Our doctor has also raised concern about his weight gain. We’ve been advised to increase iron-rich foods in his diet and also start iron syrup. The biggest challenge is that he simply refuses to eat. The moment he wakes up, he wants milk first,if I don’t feed him, he cries a lot. Because of this, I’m struggling to establish a proper meal routine, and he often refuses solids altogether. The only positive thing is that he’s very active, playful, and meets his milestones well, but his weight is a constant worry for me. I’m feeling really stressed and anxious about his eating habits and weight. Please suggest if there's any underline issue related to it. Bw - 2.27 kg Preterm baby at 35 week.

Not eating solids at 1.9 years old
My son started eating solid foods at around 6 months of age, and I breastfed him until he was 1.5 years old. After I stopped breastfeeding, he almost completely switched to drinking milk and has been eating very few solid foods. Whenever he tried eating solids, he would often vomit, so he gradually stopped eating them. My concern is whether he might need an appetite stimulant or any syrup to help increase his appetite, or if there could be another reason for his poor intake. He is currently 83 cm tall and weighs around 12.2–12.5 kg. He is extremely active, very smart, and has no problem running around, climbing up and down the stairs, and playing throughout the day. Could you please advise whether this is normal, whether he needs any tests, or whether there are any treatments or feeding strategies that would help?
