    Children look cute when they are chubby in their toddler stage but as they grow up it is better to be fit, there is nothing to worry untill she is eating properly and is slim. The problem is when the child is not eating and is skinny. Give her nutritious food which gives her nourishment and required growth.

    Yes, feed her all nutrition possible and don't worry if she's active and healthy. I have heard a lot about Pediasure..it helps children to put on weight and improves overall health. Maybe you should try.

    @Gayathri Ethiraj Maybe it was too filling.. It happened with my daughter also. So I started giving her around evening time just to give gap between lunch and dinner. I gave her for few months only when she was around 4.

    It's not a concern.. it's good and normal... As long as she's eating good, is active and healthy you need not worry at all .. Don't stop giving junk completely, some if it is fine but yes map her growth and give healthy stuff...

    Being skinny isn't a concern as along as she is active and healthy over all with good immunity. If you are not giving her already do include food items like milkshakes, dates, anjeer, other dry fruits, eggs, cottage cheese
