I'm concerned about my 4-month-old baby boy who's currently 8.2 kgs and is breastfed. Is his weight within a healthy range for his age? Could you give me some tips on how to make sure he maintains a good weight?

In conclusion, your babys weight seems fine, and as long as you continue exclusive breastfeeding and follow your pediatrician's advice, your baby will likely continue to grow healthy and strong. Always consult your pediatrician during check-ups for personalized advice.
