Baby weight and feeding problem.
My baby's weight during birth time was 4.26kg, his weight after 4months is 6.8kg. Is the weight gain enough in all these 4months?In the last month he gained just 400gms. He doesn't drink milk properly, hardly takes 60 ml even after 3 4hrs. Don't know how to make him drink more, he gets cranky everytime he has to be fed. He hardly takes 500ml per day.
