[|Human|] Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ?  Please type your query here...one year old shows poor weight gain but also a slow down in height, pedriatician has asked to wait two weeks and if no improvement is shown she will start doing tests, what could be the problem?
[|AI|]  Slow down in both weight and height for age may be due to faulty feeding, repeated illnesses, familial short stature, some hormonal, metabolic or genetic problems etc. Faulty nutrition during weaning period is one of the most common cause of slow down in weight and height. You should reevaluate your babies feeding practice with a pedestrian to make sure if your baby is getting adequate proteins and calories as per age.Also, your pedestrian will do various tests to rule out metabolic diseases, infections. Hormonal diseases etc.
