#asktheexperts my daughter is 81/2 months old. Her weight is 6kg 400gm but she can crawl , active , stand with holding something. Is there any problem and her birth weight is 2 kg 400 gms . She is having cold and cough from last 2 weeks

A. Look if you evaluate on the basis of the birth weight this seems to be absolutely normal because the child should gain at least 500 g in a month so with the current details that you have mentioned this is normal but it is little on the lower side but it is a little lower general standard which can be increased with a good diet
