Doctors' responses

The birth weight of your baby at 2.4 kg for a baby born at 36 weeks’ gestation is within a typical range for a preterm baby, although slightly on the lower end. After birth, babies often lose some weight initially, and it’s usual for them to regain this within the first couple of weeks. Your baby being 2.5 kg at 50 days suggests a slower weight gain that might warrant a closer look. At this stage, ensuring your baby’s feeding is adequate and effective is important. If breastfeeding, ensure that your baby is nursing effectively and frequently, about 8-12 times a day. If formula feeding, check that the brand and preparation are appropriate for your baby’s needs. Monitor for signs like at least 6-8 wet diapers daily and regular stooling, as well as your baby’s alertness and satisfaction after feeds.

Regarding the 1.2 mm Patent Ductus Arteriosus (PDA), it’s not unusual for preterm infants to have a PDA, and they often close on their own as the baby’s circulatory system matures. Many small PDAs will close spontaneously within the first few months. Your pediatric cardiologist might recommend monitoring it with periodic check-ups or echocardiograms to watch the progress. Symptoms of a significant PDA might include problems with feeding, fast breathing, or poor weight gain, so monitoring your baby’s symptoms is key. It’s important to follow up with your healthcare provider to assess any growth concerns and any need for intervention, either nutritional support or potentially addressing the PDA if it’s contributing to growth difficulties. Keep in regular contact with your child’s healthcare team to ensure any concerns are addressed promptly. If weight issues persist or there are signs of heart-strain or breathing issues, report them promptly.
