Baby not gaining weight

2024-03-07 00:27:55
My daughter is 6 months 13 days old. I have started feeding her solid foods for the past 10 days. Even though she is having a proper feed she looks very skinny. She doesn't look like a 6 months old baby. Kindly suggest me with weight gaining tips.

Need to know exact weight of the baby. Generally birth weight become double at age of six month. So you can check accordingly.
