Hello
Welcome to Healthcare Magic.
At 6 months, average weight of baby is around between 7 to 10 kgs.
So its not overweight.
Now start giving him your family food gradually with breast feeding.
Start with liquid and semisolid foods.
Give him very small frequent meals.
Give him mashed potato, banana, milk with very small piece of roti, porridge etc.
Please please continue breast feeding and make habits of washing hands and vessels.
Take care...
