A. Hello mom Your baby was pre meturemature and according to that babies weight is totally fine, so you should definitely not worry about it at all. If your baby is active and taking proper milk on time, then everything is fine and nothing to worry about baby should be totally on mothers milk, and there is no need to give anything else till six months .
