A. Hi Mom, do not worry much about your baby's weight if he is active, eating properly and happily reaching his milestones. As baby's weight depends on birth weight, we can expect baby to gain about 500 gm to 1 kg in a month, double at 6 months and triple at 1 year. small deviation is absolutely fine. you can include variety of homecooked foods like porridge, nuts paste, boiled and smashed potato, pulses and sprouts, smashed banana, chikko, fruits puree, vegetables puree, roti or paratha smashed, soft cooked and smashed khichdi, pancake, chila, sheera, etc and use ghee in his meal preparations. feed on regular intervals after 2 hours. follow Good hygiene avoid force feeding and overfeeding.

A. hello some kids are slow weight gainers and if the child is active then weight is not a problem and make sure to give your child HEALTHY AND NUTRITIOUS food in the diet and also you may include banana avocados potatoes and sweet potatoes and ragi egg which can help on baby gain
