A. hi dear Expect your baby to double his or her birth weight by about age 5 months. From ages 6 to 12 months, a baby might grow 3/8 inch (about 1 centimeter) a month and gain 3 to 5 ounces (about 85 to 140 grams) a week.

Q. #asktheexperts my baby has Meconium ileus (colostomy surgery, sentuli method) on day 2 of his life and currently has open stoma. His birth weight was 3kg. Currently he is 6 months old, current weight is only 4.6 kg. He is suffering from diarrhea very often. He is on formula feed (isomil formula, due to lactose intolerance). No stoma bag was given to him. His surgery doctor informed that, reversal Surgery can only be undertaken after gaining at least 8kg weight. I have given him celerac recently but he vomited. Therefore, he is currently on formula feed only. How to gain his weight and control his frequent diarrhea? Is there any way to make his colostomy reversal Surgery more quickly?
