Hello my boy is 3months (91 days) old... his birth weight was 2.97kgs today he was 5.180kgs.... he is having only breast milk... is that he is gaining normal weight??? Here my in-laws are forcing me to give him solid foods like cerelac and biscuits.... because mother's milk is not at all sufficient for him... is that his weight gaining is normal or he is underweight???

one more query he is always spliting out some milk after burp also why it happens so... kindly give me some advise

Dear Laxmi,

please dont give anything other than breastmilk to your baby. Weight gain is normal. No need to worry. Continue till he is 6 months old and then start solid foods.

Happy parenting.
