Just remeber this simple rule for weight :
Infant at 6 month - will have 2×( times ) the birth weight
By 12 months - they will be 3× (times ) birth weight
Note : this rule is for normal term babies . If your infant was born preterm then the above rule dosent apply and growth then is assessed using different growth charts.
So dont be so worried about increasing the weight of your baby if ur baby fits well in the above criteria
And now that ur baby reached 6 months you should start with complementary feeding .
Boiled rice made into paste
Mashed sweet potatos
And you can use ghee, vegetable oils if weight is your concern
There is just 1 thing to keep in mind :
Avoid solids like groundnuts , almonds,cashew as they lead to chocking
Always do check for food intolerance especially COW MILK ALLERGY which generally manifests as fussiness, improper feeding , excessive cry during feeding , vomiting , streaking of blood on the stools etc
Next Steps
allergies to peanuts, cow milk , eggs are very common in children so please look out for them . one good way is to introduce one food at a time for example if you start egg today then font intorduce any new food in the next week so that any allergic reaction will manifest withing this duration . if not present then you can proceed to add a new food .
happy parenting 😁
