A. Hello good morning !! After 6-8 months baby's growth rate slows down due to achieving milestones. Initial months baby's sleep throughout the day and growth rate will be high from 3-4 months baby's roll over, hold head,changes sleeping pattern so growth rate will be reduced a bit. But check if baby is getting enough feed. By 5-6 months baby double their birth weight. Have milk and diary products,rusk, roasted bread, Papaya, chikoo, bottle gourd, poppy seeds, garlic, kheema in diet for increasing breastmilk supply.
