hi
babies weight gain depends on their birth weight
usually they gain triple their birth weight by the age of 12 months.
and ideally ,15 months old baby should have weight between 8 to 12 kg.
please don't take much Stress for your child's weight because weight is not only parameter to judge your child's health ,it is more important to stay healthy and active then any other things so please focus on healthy development of your child.
offer homemade healthy and well balanced diet
keep your child well hydrated
