Hello. At the time of birth, he was 3. 36kg. Doctor told he is slightly weight at this stage and asked us to test thyroid level and results are normal. Hence, he advised me to start with cerelac,I have started while giving one scoop in a day, but he is not refused to take and demanding my bf milk only. Any suggestions pls?Wil there be any problems in future due to his weight?I'm so worried.

Aarthi R ! babies who are overweight are usually obese in later life too.. so just keep a watch on his diet.. and try and serve him homemade dishes.. begin with dal water, veg soup, khichri,oats, Ragi etc. gradually begin with fruits and vegetables purees . make sure what u serve him is not rich in fat or carbs.
