POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 6 m old boy6 months agoA. Your baby was born preterm at 33 weeks and had a low birth weight of 1.4 kg. Now, at 26 days old, he has gained 300 grams and weighs 1.7 kg. This weight gain is a positive sign, but for preterm babies, steady growth is more important than rapid weight gain. Ideally, preterm babies should gain about 15-30 grams per day.
Since he is gaining weight, it suggests he is progressing, but his growth should be closely monitored by a pediatrician or neonatologist. Ensure he is getting enough breast milk or fortified formula, frequent skin-to-skin contact, and proper warmth. If his weight gain slows down or if he has feeding difficulties, consult your doctor for guidance on his nutrition and growth support.
