A. dear Mum, for healthy weight gain, rather than giving commercially available packaged foods like cerelac and formula milk, prefer to give homemade food and breast milk. you can give foods like porridges (like rice, Ragi, wheat flour , moong dal and rice flour mix) , kheer. then dal-rice with vegetables, veg khichadi, soft mashed fruits, curd. Add ghee to baby's food.
