ExpertVandana SharmaNutritionist1 week agoA. Namaste Father, Height quite varies as per the family genes though , birth weight is expected to double by the age of 4 to 6 months and later triple by the age of 1. You may now introduce the baby to weaning foods, and start with liquid consistency foods first and alter with mother feed

Rashmi GuptaMom of a 12 yr old girl1 week agoA. The weight of your child should be a minimum of 2.5 kg more than the birth weight because by the age of five months complete a child should have gained this much because we expect a child to gain at least 500 g in a month and the height of the child would be completely based on the genetics of the child so you can check as per WHO standards
