Suggest On Gaining Weight For Infant

Hi, my girl baby is around 12 weeks now and her weight is 5.2 currently. She is not getting proper milk from me from birth itself. so I am giving lactogen 1 . Her birth weight is 3.5.
Is my baby fine with the weight. Can I continue lactogen or is there something else that I should start practising. Please Advice.

Hi,
Thank you for asking question on health care magic.
Lactogen is quite OK for your baby if the breast milk is not available.
You need not add any other formula till the baby is 6 months old.
Hope this answer will serve your purpose
Please feel free to ask any more queries if required
Take care
