Hi. my child was born at 37th week. When he was born he was 2.7 kg. last week he was 2.5kg. now he is 2.6kg. he has gained only 100gms in a week. Is this fine? His pees and poops are good. He seems to be active also. And the breastfeeding is also good. Is it normal if he gaining weight very slowly??
