Infant weight gain
Hello,I'm hoping you can help me. My 5 month old has been very slow to gain weight. He was born at a low birth weight of 3lb 6 oz at 36 weeks and is now 12lb 1oz. He is on his own slow growth curve, according to his doctors. He was gaining beautifully for the first 3 months, but then all of a sudden it slowed. I've cut out dairy, eggs, and nuts as possible intolerences. We also thought it may have been reflux and had him on zantac medication but we're just not sure that's it and I'm not too happy with zantac or medicine in general. Can you please tell me, if there is a homeopathic way for me to increase his appetite?

This is just a forum. Assume posts are not from medical professionals.
Please give him CALCAREA PHOSPHORICA 12C twice daily for some days till his reflux problem is cured.

Mix the remedy with a teaspoonful of water.
If the remedy is bought in pill/globule form, dissolve 3 globules in a teaspoonful of water and let him sip it up.
