My baby was born on 19th Feb 2020. It was a premature delivery 6 weeks before the expected date of Delivery. Now his weight is 11.8 kg. He walks very little by support but can't without any support. Is this a matter of concern? He he overweight?

A. Hello mom as he is a preterm baby so they achieve their milestones a bit slow as compared to a full term baby . So it’s normal to expect. And normally. By the age of one year they triple their birth weight
