A. hi babies weight gain depends on their birth weight. usually they gain 500grams per month. and ideally ,4 months old baby should have weight between 5 to 8 kg. so your child weighs little bit less but don't worry. please keep Breastfeeding your child as per his or her needs. feed your child on each breast atleast 20 minutes so he or she can get full fat hindmilk well which helps to increase your child's weight. give massage to your child daily. maintain good hygiene.
