I just noticed that my 4 month-old baby has lost weight after sending her to infant care for 3 weeks. Teachers have informed me that she doesn't take the bottle well and has been crying frequently. Her weight on 11 Jan read 6.3kg and today 19 Jan she weighs only 6kg. Should I be worried or this is considered normal? I feed on demand when she comes back from infant care.

May be your baby is taking time to adjust to the new routine and this is why he is not feeding well.
