A. dear mum, weight of 6.1 kg is normal for 5.5 months old baby, do not worry. Weight gain can vary across months. As long as baby is active, playful, achieving all growth milestones, passing urine more than 6 to 8 times in 24 hours, it indicates good health.

A. Hi mom. The weight of ur baby is fine. If ur baby is active and playful then no need to worry about weight much. Once ur baby completes six months then u can start with semi solids like cerelac, khichdi, ripe banana, apple puree etc. This will also help in weight gain of the baby.
