Q.

My 15 day old's birth weight was 2.78kg. He is 2.73 kg now. My doctor said he should've attained the birth weight by now. He is still 50grams less. Should I be worried? His urine output and bowel habits are normal.

A. In the first 1 month, babies tend to loose some weight and it usually goes down from the birt weight. In case of your baby too it has happened and it is fine even of some weight is less. There is no need to be concerned. Just try to feed milk fully and frequently in every 2-3 hours and that should include atleast 2 times night feed too.
