A. Its Better than normal your child is on the higher side of the weight which is exceptionally good so all in all I think you’re breastfeeding is quite good quite strong so continue breastfeeding only and after six months when you can start giving semisolid food to the child don’t give up on breastfeeding you should feed your child up to the age of one year at least
