From 1 month to 4 months, a baby is primarily breastfed milk. ...Mashed Banana and Apple. After the 5th month, the baby will transition to semi liquid-based food, so you can start including baby food recipes to gain weight. ...Mashed Lentils. ...Egg Yolks. ...Fish. ...Cheese or Paneer. ...Butter or Ghee.While all babies may grow at a different rate, the following indicates the average for boys and girls 4 to 6 months of age: Weight: average gain of 1 to 1¼ pounds each month; by 4 to 5 months has doubled birthweight.
