MY bb dropped from 25% to 3% in weight. Height 75%, head 90%. I have done all the suggestions that you mummies came up with (pork, soup, veges, pumpkins, etc etc...) but bb's still not gaining good weight!!! So, his paediatrician prescribed a supplement called 'Polyjoole' for him, just to increase his weight. Not sure if it's nutritious but it's high in calorie. Also, the doctor asked me to add some olive oil to his meal.
My bb's paediatrician said babies can have olive oil. And I think the same because I put a teaspoon of olive oil in his 2 meals yesterday and he's still OK!
As for the POlyjoule powder, I gave him once and my hubby says maybe we should only try the olive oil first and see how it goes. AFter all, the powder is nutrionless and we only want our baby to be healthy, not plain fat.
my siu b also slightly below the average line. she likes cereal but does't like congee. so far, i only tried to give her congeee twice, but maybe the taste is not as sweet as cereal, she doesn't like it and keeps her mouth shut ....agree that if she doesn't like it, can't force her to eat...
