Weight gain from 6 th to 12 th month means...in 7 months should be as much as birth weight if your child's birth weight was between 2.5 to 3.5 kg...
For normal children...birth weight doubles at 5 m and triples at 1 year...
So..if birth weight was 3 kg...child should gain roughly 430 GM's per month.
Next Steps
better to timely consult paeditrician for diet advise...rather than late

Hello..weight gain looks good. As of now no action is required. For weaning diet an elderly people in your family can guide you. Or else you can consult Pediatrician online or offline. It will be difficult to explain here.
