A. the average birth weight of neonates is about 3 kg. during the first few days after birth, the newborn loses extracellular fluid equivalent to about 10% of the body weight. most infants regain their birth weight by the age of 10 days. subsequently, they gain weight at a rate of approximately 25 to 30 g per day for the first 3 months of life. thereafter they gain about 400 g weight every month, for the remaining part of the first year. s an infant usually doubles his birth weight (taken as 3 kg) by the age of 5 months. the birth weight triples at 1 year and is four times at 2s years of age. the weight of a child at the age of three years is usually five times that of the birth weight.

A. You take the birth weight into consideration and see if your child has gained a minimum of 400 g to 500 g every monsoon somewhere around 1800 g to 2200 g plus the birth weight of the child should be the correct weight gain by the age of 4 1/2 man
