A. The weight gain seems to be fine. Babies under six months take on an average around 750 ml to 900ml per day split up into seven to nine feeds based on their appetite. Your baby should be peeing anywhere between six to ten times a day which means the baby is taking feeds properly. Also there should be a gradual weight gain. Keep a check on these factors.
