A. don't worry. child should double it's birth weight by completion of six months and triples by one year. in-between there can be lots of variations give only breastmilk till completion of six months

A. In Initial one month I would just like to tell you certain times kids can lose weight up to 500 g also after their birth due to jaundice and all these issues but do not worry about this only gradually as your child will grow by the age of one month or maybe 1 1/2 months your child will gain good amount of weight
