A. According to birth weight, baby weight is absolutely fine dear.

SanthoshiMom of a 8 yr 2 m old girl2 years ago

A. Ok in the first 3 months, babies put on about 800-900grams each month. From 3-6 months, weight gain reduces to 1/2 kg/month. from 6-9 months, it becomes 1/3, and for 9-12 months, it becomes 1/4 kg. the birth weight doubles in the 4th month and triples when they reach 12 months of age. Don't worry weight depends on birtj weight too
