Brief Answer:
Suggestoin on growth and development

Detailed Answer:
Hi...I congratulate you first on giving me all the information I needed to answer your queries right from the kid's birth.

Coming to your queries now -

1. You either give Jusdee 400 drops or Visyneral drops, Do not give both as both of them contain 400IU of vitamin D per ml.

2. Both height and weight and head circumference percentiles between 5th to 95th are normal Do not worry.

3. Your baby's growth perfectly normal regarding weight gain.

4. WHO graphs are the best. But new XXXXXXX and XXXXXXX growth charts have also come out recently. But my personal suggestion is go by WHO growth charts.

5. A baby should roll over by 5-6 months and crawl form 6-8 months. But some babies do not crawl but directly try to walk at 10-12 months of age.

6. Regarding baby exercises - rather than explaining each and every step, I felt a pictorial depiction is better - I am suggesting you a link.
