A. Hello dear parent! There should be a minimum weight gain of 400gms to 500gms in a month. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well on demand. The more your baby suckles your breastmilk directly the better milk supply. Include methi, roasted makhana, jeera, saunf in your diet. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil.
