You seems to be worried a lot for your daughter like any other parent.Cool down ,relax your daughter's weight is in normal range though on lower side.Let her choose her food and time.Respect her wishes , don't force feed her. No tonic ever will increase appetite of a person.See IAP growth charts for girl child and see yourself. I advise you to play with the child more than worrying anxiously.
