Q.

#asktheexperts Hi Doctor, My girl baby is now 2 month old. Her birth weight is 2.650. Last week(nov.3rd) when I checked she was 3.200. I have low milk supply so I started giving additional milk for her. Is there any other ways to increase her weight.

A. Dear mum, there are no other ways to increase your child’s weight. You should continue with breast milk / formula till 6 months. At one episode of breast feeding feed from only one breast so that baby receives fat rich hindmilk which will help in weight gain.
