My baby boy is 5 months old and has doubled his birth weight but in this month he has gained only 500gm. Is this normal?

1 Answer

A. Actually a child should gain somewhere around 4 to 500 g every month that’s ideally healthy weight gain and at this age also if your child has gained 500 g in a month and that’s a healthy weight only so do not worry about it it’s good
