Check on the complimentary feeds you are giving. Babies look chubby till 1 year of ages check the weight and monitor on IAP growth charts.
Next Steps
Baby will try to hold things, stand with support and walk with support. They explore everything by putting in their mouth at this age. Also they start talking one one word with meaning
