A. the weight of a baby is fine and it should be nearly three times the birth weight when your baby is 1 year old and it should be nearly 9 to 10 kg is at that time

A. Hello mom, Offer 3 to table spoons of cereals in a day. Offer potato, sweet potato, wholegrains, pumpkin, ghee, butter, yogurt, milk, lean meat it will helps to increase baby's weight. Offer all seasonal fruits and vegetables. If your child is active than no need to worry about baby's weight. Keep your baby healthy and hydrated. Thank you have a nice day..
