A. Dear mum, weight of 10 kg and 9 kg are normal weights, don’t worry. For healthy weight gain, give homemade balanced diet having variety of food groups especially seasonal fruits and vegetables even green leafy vegetables. At least 500 ml of milk every day including milk products like curd, paneer, cheese. You can give eggs and non veg foods. Add powdered nuts like almonds, walnuts to baby’s food. Add ghee to baby’s food. Give 5 meals a day and up to one katori every time.

A. the weight gain IA absolutely normal. please don't compare your child's health with their weight.A baby should triple his birth weight in first year of life and post that 1_2 kgs of weight gain is considered normal. So no need to worry
