Hello thanx for using hcm,
He looks under weight.
Ideal weight will be 11-12 kg .You might be giving less food and child is more active.
Give small healthy meals including foods like soft cooked rice, wheat, oats, semolina , fruit juices, well cooked vegtables, chicken ,egg.
Feed variety to the child dont serve the same kind of food.
Give fresh milk or formula atleast 3 servings daily.
Dont worry serve healthy nutritious food, you will find progress in his weight.
