Patient's question:
Detailed medical condition and consultation purpose: My daughter is 14 months old, with a height of 72 cm, weight of 7.5 kg, and a head circumference of 44 cm. All her indicators are below standard, and we have been working hard on it. Before weaning, she hardly ate any complementary foods. After weaning, she started drinking milk and has a relatively large appetite. In the past month, her complexion has improved slightly.Is it possible that my daughter has a congenital physical condition that caused her to be short? Now that she is willing to eat, her condition has improved. Can she gradually catch up to normal children?

Doctor's answer:
This is a feeding issue, as the feeding has not kept up. At 4 months, infants should be introduced to complementary foods and should not rely solely on breast milk. For older infants, not adding complementary foods can lead to malnutrition. Don't worry, proper feeding will improve.
