#asktheexperts Hi my son was 2.9kgs at the time of birth and 2.74kgs at the time of discharge. Today at 6 weeks and 3 days he weighs 3.5 kgs. Is this normal or is he underweight? I'm exclusively breastfeeding him. Should I give formula as well?

A. The Child has gained decent weight as per the discharge rate of a look at it your child has gained about 700 g in three weeks that’s very good a minimum of 300 g in a month is considered very good with 700 g are good and your child must have lost a little weight after birth since when kids suffer with jaundice the loose on a little bit of it
