My baby was 7.5kg at 16months. Definitely at the low side so pediatrician suggested adding glucose powder to her milk. She is smart, an advanced talker and generally healthy despite her low weight. Now at 22months, she is only 8.6kg but already at the 3 percentile so it’s an achievement for us. Don’t worry too much, your baby is perfectly healthy.
