Your babies weight is ok as it falls within the 80-120% range expected weight increase.
Babies are expected to add monthly 1kg on average for term babies and 600g for preterm babies. Remember we are talking AVERAGELY.......Some babies do gain a little more; others a little less......So You don't have to worry as long as your baby's weight falls into the 80% - 120% range of the average weight I mention; it is OKAY!!!
