Weighing scale difference can be there, not that much but around 200 to 300gm sometimes.
Weight is appropriate for age. However child weight gain pattern decreases as compared to earlier age. After first 3 months, they gain 1.5kg in next 3 months and then again 1.5kg from 6 months to 1 year as their height starts increasing.
Child should pass urine 6 times a day.
Can encourage food rich in proteins like khichdi, boiled and mashed pulses, Raab, shiro etc
