A. Weight gain in a child is a good indicator for proper health of the child and there should be a regular weight gain as per the age of the child. if there is not a proper weight gain it can be because of many factors and three most important causes are Baby not taking enough calories Baby is not absorbing the enough calories which the baby is taking Baby is burning too many calories . So a prodper assessment is very important to know the cause recgarding this .

A. hi weight is good enough nothing to worry about it. just feed your child on demand. feed your child on each breast atleast 20 minutes so your child can get full fat hindmilk well which helps in Healthy weight gain. give gentle massage with Babyhug coconut oil everyday.
