My Baby's Growth

Assalamo Alikum and hello to all in Parenting forum,

Being a mother of 1 month and 24 days old little doll i need some advise from you.

My daughter was born on 29th January with 3.6kg weight, on 6th Feb weight was 3.2kg, on 6th March weight was 3.8kg, on 12th March weight was 4kg, and on 22nd March weight was still 4kg.

i need to ask you and advise you my daughter’s growth level is going ok? How much i can expect her growth in coming days and what is the growth level in 2 or 3 or 4 months?.

My daughter mashaallah is perfectly all right. Yes we notice gas and constipation but she is peeing and pooping well on time. She born by Caesarean first 15-20 days she was on my feeding then she moved on formula milk due to low quantity of my feed now she is on formula milk.

Also please advise me about the formula milk which one is best for her growth?. I had started her with Nestle Nan, then i tried her Morinaga BF1 but both discomfort her after feeding now i am giving her Nestle Lactogen 1 this one makes her feel better after feeding. What level of milk quantity should i prepare for her as per her weight and growth?. I am also facing some difficulties for her burping, during feeding she went into sleep. Please guide me what should i do for her burping.

My daughter is not Chubby i want her also, please tips me.

Awaiting your reply and guidance.

Thanks and Kind Regards.

She does seem to be on the slim side, but I am guessing you are weighing her at the doctor’s office. Did the doctor say anything about weight? I suggest you see the doctor about her weight and feeding. Kids do go to sleep during feeding time. Try to burp her every two ounces.

Yes the weight was checked by the doctor and he says her weight is ok as per her head and height measurement.

Re: My Baby’s Growth

I think you should seek a second opinion. If other doctors say she is fine too then realize some babies are not chubby. My own kids were born big but were never chubby babies. Babies are supposed to double their weight by 4-6 months but every baby is different.
