Welcome to HCM

The complaints which you have are often seen in preterm and low birth weight babies.

This is not a serious issue unless you take proper care.

Adequate burping after each feed is vital.

If at all your giving lactogen prepare it in right proportion.
Mix one scoup of the powder to 30ml of Luke warm water.

In order to increase weight add Simyl MCT oil 1ml to each feed.

Kangaroo mother care is important in under weight babies.
Put your baby over your breast and abdomen, so that the baby gets your warmth. Do this for 30mins thrice a day.
Take care.

She will grow well and gain weight.
