A. at the end of 6 months you have to start gradually all types of food to which the child is not allergic and does not have digestion problem as well as the child is able to swallow the food. CEREALS PULSES VEGETABLE Gradually from few spoons per day(cereals pulses vegetable) you have to shift to half katori (100ml) three times per day till 9 months of age. FRUITS From six months to nine months you have to give few 2 pieces of fruit and then shift to half a katori 2 times per day. if breastfeeding is going on you can continue at regular interval. and if you are giving outside milk then it should be around 700 to 800 ml per day the weight of the child will gradually increase no need to worry

A. Hello mom Baby weight should be triple in a year according to birth weight and after one year baby gain weight slowly so you should calculate according to that. If your baby is having proper meals and is active than everything is fine and nothing to worry about then you should not worry about it at all
