What Causes Restricted Weight Gain In An Infant?
Hi, My daughter is 3.5 month old, weigth - 5.15 kg, hight btw 1.5 - 2 feet. She was 3.3 kg at time of her birth. she is on breast feed only. I feel her weigth gain is bit slow. What can we do to improve her weight gain. Her urine cycle is normal bt she passes little stool frequently in a day (upto 10-12 times in a day) thanks Vikash

HI
Well come to HCM
Appreciate your concern
No need to be over conscious for the weight of baby because this could be normal one, weight of new born babies goes on great variation for pretty long months and it is totally depends upon genetic constitution, it can only be matter of concern when associated with some underlying disease else this is nothing to worry, hope this information helps, take care.
