Hi doctor my baby boy born prematurely at 31 weeks with weight of 1. 8 kgs. As doctor said that vaccination is given only after baby weight is becomes more than 2. 0 kgs. But it is been 26 days being baby is born but weight is neither increased not decreased. I am very much worried about delaying ofvaccination. One of my friend suggested that small mct oil usage can increase baby's weight. If so how to use it. Instead of giving orally, is it used to do massage. Or if given orally what dosage is given. Is it good to use or not. Pls let me know and help me with your valuable information and suggestion.
