Patient's question:
The child has been crying non-stop recently and isn't eating much. Is it normal for a two-month-old baby to grow 5.6 cm and 2 pounds?Doctor's answer:
Hello, your baby's growth and development are slightly lower, which is nothing to worry about. There can be physiological weight loss during the neonatal period. Just pay attention to proper feeding.It is recommended to monitor the feeding method and avoid eating too quickly or too eagerly. After feeding, pat the baby's back to burp. Keep the baby in an upright position at a 30-degree angle for observation. Additionally, check if the child has any lung infections or abnormal breathing. If anything seems unusual, it is advisable to take them to the hospital for a check-up.
