A. Hello dear parent! For the first 6 months the baby should be either exclusively breastfed or formula fed only. Baby should be doubling it’s birth weight by 6 months and triple by one year. Regularly massage your baby with Babyhug cold pressed coconut oil

A. Hi mommy Give solid food after six months Maintain hydration Give adequate feeding every two hours or on demand Burp well after every feeding Weight of your baby is absolutely normal Give seasonal fruits vegetables juice and other solid cereals fruits etc after six months as baby’s digestive system is still developing

A. Yes its quite common in newborns. They loose weight intially and gain slowly in the first 3 months, babies put on about 800-900grams each month. From 3-6 months, weight gain reduces to 1/2 kg/month. from 6-9 months, it becomes 1/3, and for 9-12 months, it becomes 1/4 kg. the birth weight doubles in the 4th month and triples when they reach 12 months of age.
