Your weight is below the 5th percentile and your height is on the 5th percentile for your age. You may be genetically small too. To help increase your weight for your age is to exercise with weights that build up lean body muscle. Suggest drinking either nutrient dense drinks (in addition to eating your meals) such as ensure or make your own milkshakes - soy yogurt, soy milk, and frozen fruit blended together; or milk, ice cream, and frozen fruit blended together for extra calories, protein and nutrients to help increase your weight. Hoped this helped you.
