A. Namaste Mom, As she was unwell and also babies loose weight after their birth as well, monthly weight gain is expected in the range of 400 gm to 1 kg and by age of 4 to 6 months they double their birth weight

Author of questionMom of a 1 yr 2 m old girl1 Year ago

A. her Birthwieght is 2.8 kh bt due to jaundice she lost 600 gram in just 6 days so her weight is 2.300kg after 6 days of her birth and after that she gain almost 1.6 kg

A. Your child is little underweight I feel now it would completely depend what was the birth weight of your child so it’s there that the child should gain at least 1500 g in three months because 500 g minimum gain every month should be seen so you calculate on that basis and if it is less then start giving formula milk to your child
