Healthy Ways To Make Toddler Gain Weight
There is a chart that the parents need to follow when it comes to the weight and the height of the child. Every child needs to have a steady increase in their weight till they reach adulthood. This needs to be closely monitored. If the child is not gaining enough weight, there could be medical issues related to it.
Infants and babies usually do not have a problem eating -- they cry for food, they eat and then sleep and the cycle continues. The problem arises when they are toddlers, when they are running around, when they know what they want, and when they can say ‘no’. This is the stage where they need that extra food which they will refuse to take. The basic concept here is that they burn out a lot of energy. So, they need to eat more than what they burn out to put on weight.
Of course, eating unhealthy food can help you with this, which then messes up with their immune system. Parents need to monitor that they get the right kind of foods for their kids. Weight gain in children needs to be solved in healthy ways. The following are a few ways you could try to make toddler gain weight. There is no harm in trying them, you will also need to give your child some time to get used to the new routine.
High
Calorie
Beverages
Fortified
beverages
and
other
standard
beverages
are
something
that
you
can
give
to
make
toddler
gain
weight.
These
are
not
complete
meals,
but
instead
they
should
be
served
as
drinks
between
meals.
All
these
beverages
will
boost
up
the
energy
and
speed
up
weight
gain.
You
can
consult
your
pediatrician
for
suggestions.
Energy
–
Dense
Food
There
is
a
weight
gain
in
children
when
you
serve
them
with
energy
dense
food.
So,
you
need
to
pick
up
food
that
is
high
in
calories
or
high
in
nutrients
or
both.
This
will
help
in
providing
their
body
with
the
nutrients
that
will
help
them
store
the
fat.
Avoid
foods
that
are
rich
in
sugar,
saturated
fats
and
sodium.
Dips
and
spreads
Additional
calories
that
are
present
in
kid
friendly
dips
and
spreads
can
be
used
to
make
toddler
gain
weight.
This
can
be
served
along
with
any
finger
foods
that
are
given
to
the
child.
These
toppings
are
generally
very
high
in
calories
and
will
provide
them
with
high
amount
of
energy.
You
could
also
provide
them
with
fruits
and
vegetables.
Frequent
Snacking
Weight
gain
in
children
can
be
increased
when
they
are
frequently
snacking.
When
they
are
given
food
in
between
their
meals,
they
are
provided
with
an
opportunity
to
eat
between
their
regular
meals
and
that
gives
them
more
energy.
Another
important
thing
that
parents
need
to
keep
in
mind
is
not
to
allow
their
kids
to
skip
meals.
Medical
Help
After
you
have
tried
everything
and
if
still
you
are
not
able
to
make
toddler
gain
weight,
you
need
make
sure
that
you
seek
medical
help.
The
doctor
can
help
you
better
with
what
you
can
do
for
your
child.
Proper
diagnosis
will
help
improve
the
condition
if
it
is
related
to
any
medical
problems.
