A. For a baby with a birth weight of 2.4 kg, here's a general guideline for expected weight gain: - **In the first few months**, babies typically gain about 150-200 grams per week. - By **5 months**, most babies double their birth weight. Given this: - **Expected Weight at 5 Months**: The weight should ideally be around 4.8 kg (double the birth weight) to 6 kg, depending on various factors such as feeding, overall health, and growth rate. However, every baby grows at their own pace. It's important to monitor the baby's overall growth pattern, including length and head circumference, along with weight. If there are concerns about the baby's weight or growth, it's always a good idea to consult with a pediatrician.
