What was the birth weight? Also the baby should be exclusively on breastmilk till 6 months. and if the height and weight are increasing then I guess it should not be a concern You can work on a proper diet once you start solid food after 6 months. And consult your peads and see if the baby needs supplementary formula feed( which is not necessary if the breastmilk is adequate) All the best!!

Babies should be exclusively breastfed till six months. You should take care that your baby is completely feeding one breast and then changing to another. So that she gets hind milk which is rich in fat. My little one was 2. 6kg when she was 1. 5 months old. And her birth weight was 3. 16kg. Now she is 12months old and weighs 9. 8kg. Don't worry about the weight loss. Just keep feeding you little one. Happy parenting.
