Lazima shirinGuardian of 3 children9 months agoA. A newborn baby weighing 1.5kg
is considered low birth weight
(LBW). According to the World Health Organization (WHO), a baby born weighing less than 2.5kg is considered LBW.
For a 1.5kg newborn, it's essential to:
1. Monitor their weight gain closely.
2. Ensure proper nutrition through breastfeeding or formula feeding.
3. Keep them warm, as they may have difficulty regulating their body temperature.
4. Follow up regularly with the pediatrician for check-ups and guidance.
The pediatrician may also recommend.
1. More frequent feedings.
2. Supplements to support growth and development.
3. Regular weight and growth monitoring.
It's crucial to work closely with the pediatrician to ensure the baby receives the necessary care and support for optimal growth and development.
