Don't frequently change the side while feeding.this leads to more intake of; foremilk which is less in fat content and high in lactose; which makes baby fuller and not get enough fat.so make sure ur baby is getting hind milk also ..feed; atleast 10 mints to one side.

Dear Shailaja,i guess the baby is doing fine. Mine was not even 3 kgs by that time. Just keep your baby fed optimally. If the babys pee count is 6-7 times in 24 hours,your baby is getting enough,why worry on baby weight. Rather just see,that the baby is in healthy percentile which she looks like! Unless your paed say that you need to worry about the weight for which he would tell you ways as well on how to do it,Relax and enjoi mommyhood. There are many other things to worry new momma 😜

If her paed thinks she is less weight then he will decide what to do, don't worry till then.

Right now till 6months, breast is the only option. If your supply is ample, then why worry. Latch well, encourage more feeding so that there's no supply issue. Also, if at all you think milk isn't enough, talk to doc to get the right med or supplement to enhance supply. Only after these don't work, you can ask Doc for top feed.
