Detailed explanation-1: -How much should a 4-month-old baby weigh and measure? The average weight for a 4-month-old baby is 14.2 pounds for girls and 15.4 pounds for boys; the average length (aka height) is 24.4 inches for girls and 25.2 inches for boys. Of course that doesn’t mean your 4-month-old should weigh and measure exactly that.
Detailed explanation-2: -At the end of 4 months: Baby is 6-1/2 to 7 inches long. Weight is about 6 to 7 ounces. Baby is developing reflexes, such as sucking and swallowing, and may begin sucking thumb.
