Saro if her weight is appropriate for her age, she is cheerful, feeding properly, peeing 7-8 times a day, please do not worry . By the way what's her birth weight and current weight?

She is your baby and you know best about her, let others not create doubt in yourself. You are a mother, and nothing can be stronger than a mother's instinct.

After birth there is a indeed a weight loss as there is water retention when a baby is born, but gradually baby catches up. So feed on demand or 6-8 times a day

Saro i totally agree with Shikha Batra , water retention is the reason why baby looks like reducing weight, if your milk supply is enough means there is nothing to worry. Incase if you feel that you are not getting enough milk, then take care of your diet to help in lactation. Few suggestions are,take a balanced diet of cereals (esp dalia, bajra), green leafy vegetables (esp methi, mustard leaves), dals & legumes (masoor. black channa, soybean), fruits, milk products, eggs fish & poultry. Do take almonds, cashew, walnuts, sesame seeds, flaxseeds, dates, raisins, cumin seeds, methi seeds, ajwain, dried ginger, gaund, jaggery etc. You should also take ample, zeera water, soups, buttermilk, egg , milk etc.

Saro till 6 month baby should be only on milk, so you need to improve your diet for serving her health milk. In your diet please take milk and milk products, fruits, dry fruits, green vegetables, eggs. If you take all these items in you food then the milk would be enough healthy for baby, so it's not important that baby should be chubby, if she is thin then also she is healthy and fit from inside.

Ananthi is right. If your baby is drinking milk properly, achieving all milestones on time and take good sleep then not need to worry. I understand your concern about baby. Some baby's have good weight and do good activities, but they look thin which is completely normal. It is more important that the baby's weight and all its milestones achive are on time. you should take good diet and give breastfeed on time to you baby. Other people speak like this but you are a mother and you know very well what is right for your baby.

Saro What's the exact age of your baby? For 45 days, 3kgs weight is fine. But for a 3 months old baby, it's slightly on a lower side.
