A. child should double it's birth weight by completion of six months and triples by one year. mother milk is sufficient till completion of six months. take iron calcium and multivitamins supplements regularly and protein powder with milk twice a day

A. Hi mom Mother should exclusive breast feed her baby till six months. Babies they loose weight in the initial few days after birth. But the weight start to increase after that. Feed for longer time from one side so that baby gets both fore milk and Hind milk. Hind milk is rich in fat and thicker which will help in weight gain of the baby.
