Question

Accepted Answer

3.6 is birth weight or current weight because first you have to understand how much I should gain it should be at least 500 g in a month if your child is gaining that way then there is no need to do anything but if your child is not gaining weight and you do not want to give formula and it is completely your choice because at the end of the day the child is not gaining weight or if the child is under growth then it’s going to be your responsibility because you do not want to introduce formula Okay and secondly thyroid test must have been suggested because sometimes despite the mothers feeding is good the child is not gaining weight with that then what is the problem you are certain things and reasoning behind these test and suggestions if you do not want to accept it it’s completely your call if you don’t want to get a thyroid test done if you do not want to start with formula also that’s completely alright as a mother you would know what is the best for your child
