A. child should double it's birth weight by completion of six months and triples by one year.. breast milk is always sufficient and best for weight gain till six months.. there's nothing to worry about

A. Weigt seems good. in the first 3 months, babies put on about 800-900grams each month. From 3-6 months, weight gain reduces to 1/2 kg/month. from 6-9 months, it becomes 1/3, and for 9-12 months, it becomes 1/4 kg. the birth weight doubles in the 4th month and triples when they reach 12 months of age.
