There are many reasons for such complaints, such as Forced feeding, excessive milk intake, excessive fruits and juices. In this way, baby's tummy is full and he doesn't like to have meals. These drinks have low calories, hence poor weight gain. First you should change these food habits, and try with family diet, without forcing. If it not work, consult your doctor.

Children tend to vomit if food is forced on them. as part of investigating the cause you need to check his TSH and inform me . 10 Kg is reasonable and make sure he is not anemic
