A. Hello mom as she was low birth weight as well hence the weight gain is low , though babies s are expected to almost double their birth weight by the age of 4 to 6 months and then triple by the age of 1 year. You can gradually include more variety and quantities of foods, as per how well the baby is accepting them , Such as adding ghee to their meals, also the consistency needs to be between semi solid to soft consistency now. Dry fruits and nuts , different variety of dals, rice , roti , fruit and vegetables, panner, curds, tofu , sago , dalia, oats etc
