Hi Razia ... Please note the following and try to give best on this - 1. Feed baby every two hours , check the sucking ability ,it is also possible that as baby is premature and was born under weight 1.8 kg she may not have developed sucking ability fully, please invest in good electric breast pump and store milk, give every time thru katori spoon sterlize one , this will be tuff initially but you can do it. You have to ensure she is sucking properly if she doesn't support her thru katori spoon feeding of breast milk..and only breast milk nothing unless there is major issue. Take all proper steps for feeding hyegeine ...adha di has share links u can check and ask us too. Burp baby properly after every feed to avoid indigestion and unnecessary lose of appetite .2. try kmc as baby is just one month, till baby reaches 2 or 2.5 you can offer kangaroo care at home ..trust me it has immense effect it will increase weight also.3. please take Good carr of hyegeine and surroundings ...care baby by yourself...wash hands frequently ,change babys cloth frequently ,and ensure to keep away baby with people with cold cough infection etc. Because at the phsase of weight development its imp... baby doesn't go back and becomes strong each passing day .4. prepare schedule of Baby and follow...schedule effect babys health too. 5. Talk a lot to baby sing..it may sound little odd...but it works wonder for health of preemies.5. avoid taking baby to public place etc...atleast for six months as baby is born at low birth weight.6. baby should pee atleast 7 times ...always check that or report to doctor. 8.you have to take care of your diet ...I know as a mom of preemie its very tuff as you have to be super mom.all the time , but ask help ...for your diet so that you have enough milk for baby...take everything to increase yiur breast milk ,because it's liquid gold for your baby and it will give life time immunity to your child.9. pray,mediate when ever you get time...your baby will be very healthy ..this is your tuff time..but God will abd has given you enough strength to overcome this...darling hugs !! Dont worry...and get determined ...m sure with this suggestions..your baby will do super...also donot hesistate to show your ped ....when ever any health issue... You are a mom of preemie so already a super mom ..I know I can do it.;;;;; All m writing this as my baby was born very premature ...and i have gone thru this....but God gave all strength to overcome.hugs n love !!
