#asktheexpert hello doctor.. my baby age is 6 months and 18 days old.. her weight is now 5.7 kg shez active but I’m worried about her weight gain.. her birth weight is 2.29 kg. Any suggestions??

A. 5.8 to 9.2 kg is the average weight range for this age group. Considering her birth weight she seems to be okay. Once you start giving solids, You can give banana, potatoes, sweet potatoes and continue feeding breastmilk or formula. You can add homemade ghee in babys regular meals. You can also give warm rice mixed with curd around eight months. All these could help weight gain.
