POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy10 months agoA. Typically, a baby's birth weight is expected to double by around 4 to 6 months of age. For a baby born at 2.37 kg, reaching 5 kg at 5 months sounds like good progress. Babies grow at their own pace, so as long as your baby is healthy, alert, and reaching other developmental milestones, this weight gain is generally fine.
As for starting solids, the recommended age is around 6 months, as babies are usually developmentally ready for solids at that time. Until then, continue with breast milk or formula, which will provide the necessary nutrition. However, it’s a good idea to consult your pediatrician before introducing solids to ensure your baby is ready.
