A. 8 kg weight is in normal range. Offer a variety of tastes and texture so that baby gets used to it all. In between meals keep offering healthy snacks like fruit or vegetable sticks or puree.

A. Hi, yes sometimes it's tricky to feed the baby., please keep trying new food flavour like putting little pepper, lemon, ghee, jaggery etc in the food items. also try dry fruits powder, ragi porridge, rice or sooji kheer, upma, fruit juices(specially seasonal fruits) and vegetables soup. foods like potato, banana with milk, egg, oatmeal, nuts, chicken are known for having weight gain properties. Ensure baby has proper rest as well and have good play time. Thanks
