What was the birth weight of your baby? If your baby has gained around 400 to 750 gms every month he s normal. Milk gets generated on need basis, the more you feed the more it gets generated. Untill 3 months babies ask for feed very frequently sometimes it can be as frequent as 15 mins. Do not get demotivated just eat healthy and feed your baby as much as possible ignore when people say milk is not sufficient.

Hi, your babies weight is perfectly normal. Ignore your relatives who tell it. If they keep telling it, just say doctor has told my babies weight is normal, thanks for your concern. At this age babies feed very frequently. Once you feed your baby check if your breasts feel lite, it means your baby has drunk enough. They will not be able to drink more at a time, as they get tired sucking. If you still feel , try squeezing your breast to check if milk is actually coming.
