POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy6 months agoA. The ideal weight of a 2-month-old baby depends on birth weight, genetics, and feeding patterns. However, here’s a general guideline:
🔹 Average Weight Range
✅ For Boys: 4.3 – 6.3 kg
✅ For Girls: 4.0 – 5.8 kg
🔹 Expected Weight Gain Babies typically gain 700-900 grams per month in the first 3 months. By 2 months, a baby should ideally weigh about 1.5 to 2 times their birth weight. 🔹 When to Worry?
⚠️ If baby is not gaining weight properly (less than 500g per month).
⚠️ If baby looks weak, fussy, or isn’t feeding well.
🔹 How to Ensure Good Weight Gain?
✅ Exclusive breastfeeding or formula feeding every 2-3 hours.
✅ Ensure baby is getting enough hindmilk (the thick, fatty milk at the end of feeding).
✅ Check for proper latch if breastfeeding.
✅ Burp baby properly after each feed to avoid gas issues.
