A. Dear parent, weight gain of 1.1 kg is absolutely ok for your baby. Baby should gain at least 500 grams per month on an average. For healthy weight gain, exclusively breastfeed your baby till 6 months complete.

A. Hi, weight seems to be good. Usually after birth by six month baby will get triple the birth weight. And exclusively breastfeed until the completion of six months. Make sure there is a gap of two hours between each feed and burp your baby well after every feed.Write Your Answer Here
