Hello mom
Not to worry as her other accepts are fine and normal for her age , babies double their birth weight by the age of 4 to 6 months and then triple by the age of 1 year . Gradually increase the quantity and variety and number of meals for them

hi
mam ,if a child weighs around 4.6 to 8 kg ,you should not worry.
because for a child ,it is not necessary to reach at ideal weight range
it is important for a child to remain happy and active.
so as a child is happy and active, gains enough weight, achieve age appropriate milestones then no need to worry about anything.
