A. Hai good morning !! By 5-6 months babies double their birth weight,check if baby doubled her birth weight in 6th month check up(7.4kg)).. Also after 6-8 months weight gain rate slows compared to earlier due to achieving milestones.. So don't worry about weight if baby is active and achieving milestones. Baby's present weight according to age is fine, include high protein, calcium rich foods. Mashed banana mango puriee, steamed and mashed potatoes, sweet potato, carrot, mashed dal rice curd rice, cerelac with pulses, grains dry fruits and nuts powder, porridges,dal kichdi ,ghee, cheese, butter, paneer which helps in increasing weight gain, muscle strength, bones strength...
