Accepted Answer

Hi mom
what is the birth weight and the present weight of your child?if it is according to the below criteria and it is proper then no need to worry. 
if the weight is little less or more nothing to worry regarding that if the child is healthy
 Babys weight  will double by 5 month and triple by one year of age from the birth weight. 
Little less or more will not cause any harm. 
If your baby is healthy active passing 6 to 8 times urine per day and passing motion frequently then please do not worry
