Baby weight and milestones

2022-08-13 18:13:45
My son is 7 and half month old. He weighs 6kgs. He will roll on but he haven't started crawling. He will feed less from 3 months of his age. Is it fine with less weight and not achieving milestones on time

Every baby achieves milestones at different months. What you are seeing is only 1 of the 5 aspects of milestones i.e gross motor. There is fine motor, language, social, sight and hearing assessment. Only a pediatrician can assess growth in all these aspects then decide whether there is a delay or not.
Next Steps
As of now, please be patient. Give your baby some time, he will start crawling soon.
Health Tips
visit pediatrician if you want him to be assessed.
