Banana and Avo was a hit! Wolfed it down. I like idea of eggy toast.
We see a paed once a month, he's not worried, but we will keep checking.
Eggy toast could be a go too.

I use toast bread as its much thicker so doesn't go soggy. I just dip more than soak it so it frys nice and crispy. I use 1 egg and about quarter a cup of milk per 3 slices of bread. You can just use 2 egg yolks if bubs isn't allowed full eggs yet.
I often have it for lunch with my 2 year old. Its kinda like french toast but minus the sugar etc. I often put baked beans and bacon on top of mine.
Great finger food for the kidlets too.

All I can suggest is to stop worrying and stop trying to figure out what to feed her to "help" her gain weight. It sounds like she's just going to be a small child, especially if genetics play a part. If she eats well, is happy and healthy and doing everything she should developmentally like you said, and the paed isn't worried, then just go with the flow. She sounds just like my wee poppet. Emily was an IUGR baby born 2 months early just 1.35kg. As well as that I am only a tiny thing myself and was a small child so she gets that from me too. She has never been a big weight gainer, and at 9.5 months she only weighed 6.24kg and was 62cm long. She ate a good amount of food as well as breastfeeds and formula, and she was (and still is) a happy, healthy, a good sleeper and charging ahead developmentally. Even now she can still put the food away and at her 2 year check she was only 79cm tall and weighed 9.47kg. I gave up worrying about her size a loooong time ago. Even though she is still tiny, she is doing just fine otherwise.

I tend to agree with you troods, except for the fact that this little might is a bit younger, but Millymollymandy - if your seeing a paed every month they will have it covered - they look at the big picture as opposed to charts that plunket tend to go from, Im sure if anything is going on other than just a little person, they will be on to it well before plunket. And your breast feeding so plenty of good stuff getting in there!
