A. Hello dear parent! There should be a minimum weight gain of 400gms to 500 gms in your child. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug daily massage oil for muscle flexibility and skin care. Continue feeding your baby well on demand for every 2 to 3 hours. As long as your baby is active and healthy, accepting feeds, passing adequate urine a minimum of 6 to 8 times in a day then nothing to worry. Good luck and take care.
