A. 0 if you are exclusively breast feeding the baby properly and the urine output is good then you can just continue to measure the daily increase in the weight of the baby the birth weight should get double by 3 months of age you can take a proper opinion and guidance regarding this from your treating pediatrician

A. Consider Supplementing If your baby's doctor thinks it's necessary, you may have to supplement your baby with additional feedings of either pumped breast milk or infant formula. You can also try to pump and separate your foremilk from your hindmilk. Hindmilk is higher in fat and calories, which can help your baby gain more weight.
