Your baby’s weight is very low considering she is 3yrs old. It is also important for us to know about other anthropometric parameters like height. We should rule out any organic causes before saying it may be due to inappropriate diet.
Next Steps
Consult your pediatrician as he may do some physical examination and tests if necessary.
