Hi Dr,

My 5 week old is still at her birthweight. I'm breastfeeding her. I'm not sure if that suffices her hunger as she cries and continues rooting. I end up giving her some amount of formula (30-60mL 5 times a day). She passes urine 10-12 times a day and stool once in 4 days. I'm not sure if she's getting the right amount of nutrition. She is active otherwise. Please advise.

All babies loose about ten percent of their birth weight in the first few days after birth. Then they can take a couple of weeks to regain the same. Considering that you are also giving her formula she should have gained weight. Kindly discuss the same with your doctor.
