My baby is 68 days old..She is on formula feed and breast milk. Now she is 4.5kg.But she is not that much chubby like other 4.5 kg babies and sometimes when we are taking her we feel like she lost some weight. But she is showing the weight on weighing scale.Why is it so?. When babies start becoming chubby?

A. From birth to age 6 months, a baby might grow 1/2 to 1 inch (about 1.5 to 2.5 centimeters) a month and gain 5 to 7 ounces (about 140 to 200 grams) a week. Expect your baby to double his or her birth weight by about age 5 months.
