Dr Vandan H KumarFather of a 7 yr 4 m old boy1 Year agoA. yes is good
the average birth weight of neonates is about 3 kg.
during the first few days after birth, the newborn loses
extracellular fluid equivalent to about 10% of the body
weight.
most infants regain their birth weight by the age of 10 days. subsequently, they gain weight at a rate of
approximately 25 to 30 g per day for the first 3 months of life.
thereafter they gain about 400 g weight every month,
for the remaining part of the first year.
an infant usually doubles his birth weight (taken as 3 kg) by the age of 5 months. the birth weight triples at 1 year and is four times at 2 years of age.
the weight of a child at the age of three years is usually
five times that of the birth weight.
Sai Prasanthi R LMom of a 11 yr 6 m old boy1 Year agoA. Hello dear parent! Depends on baby’s birth weight. Baby should be gaining at least 400 to 500gms per month in the first few months. Continue to exclusively breastfeed your baby well on demand. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil
