It really depends on how much the baby weighed a few months ago. As long as he is gaining, I wouldn't worry too much. The doctor should give you a percentile and chart the babies growth(they do in America, not quiet sure where you are from.) they will tell you if the growth curve is bad.

I would thinks so.. thats about 18-19 lbs.
my daughter is small for her age and at 6 months old was only 14lbs.. (about 2 lbs less than most girls her age)
Depends on the baby but that sounds about right to me.. maybe even a little bigger than most.. boys are bigger than girls though.. so if your baby is a boy i would think that he/(she?) would be the right weight.

That's a pretty average 6 month old weight. But really it all depends on birth weight, growth curve, blahblahblah. If it wasn't Ok, though, your doctor would have mentioned something.

That will be 15.4 lbs. He is a little small but I think it is ok. My son is small for his age. My son is two and only weighs 24 lbs. He eats all the time but runs it off. As long as your baby is eating good and is gaining wt. then he is fine. If you're still worried talk to the pediatrician.

That looks like it's about 15th percentile. Small, but not necessarily troublesome. The real question is how well is s/he tracking? If he was 85th percentile 3 months ago, something is probably wrong.

My son is also 6mths, he weighs 20.5 pounds. I was told he's in the 90th percentile for his weight. He only weighed 7lbs at birth, so he's almost tripled his birth weight.

I would assume that it is, but it all depends on how much he weighted at birth.
