What to do if your child grows slowly:

1. Strengthen nutrition and care. If a baby is not well fed or gets sick after birth, he or she may grow 5 to 6 centimeters less, or even less, and will be shorter than other children in the future. Therefore, adequate nutrition is necessary throughout the infant and toddler period, and complementary foods should be added in a timely manner to prevent diseases. For small babies born, more nutrition and care should be given to accelerate their growth.

2. Develop good living habits. Do not be picky about food, eat less snacks, and it is best not to eat sweets or drink beverages 1 to 2 hours before meals. This is conducive to a good appetite. Exercise regularly, because exercise increases the secretion of growth hormone, which is beneficial to growth. The secretion of growth hormone in normal people is pulsed, mainly occurring during sleep at night. Adequate sleep is also important for growth.

Through the above introduction, we have a good understanding of what to do if a child grows slowly. Therefore, when a child grows slowly, you can solve it according to the above methods. However, it should be noted that when such a problem is very serious, it must be improved in time, otherwise it will cause great damage to all aspects of the child's body.
