ExpertRamya RamachandranNutritionist4 years agoA. Dear ma’am, is the baby on breastfeeding? If yes then how frequently do you breastfeed and how long does the baby feed at breast? Do you Offer one breast for one feed or both the breasts? How many times your baby passes urine in 24 hours?

Ankita MehtaMom of a 9 yr 11 m old girl4 years agoA. hi
babies weight gain depends on their birth weight
usually they gain 250 to 500g per month
so don't worry
feed your child on demand
feed your child on each breast at least 20 minutes so he or she can get full fat hindmilk well which help to increase your child weight
give Massage to your child daily
maintain good hygiene
