Problem:
An infant, born at full term and with an unremarkable neonatal history, is brought to the clinic for a well-child visit. The parents express concern that the child, whose birth weight was 3.5 kg, now weighs only 5 kg at 6 months of age. Based on normal growth patterns, what is the most appropriate response regarding the infant's weight gain? Group of answer choices Suggest that the weight gain is ahead of the expected curve and counsel on potential overfeeding. Inform the parents that while the infant's weight is below the expected milestone, it is not concerning. Reassure the parents that the weight is appropriate for the infant's age. Advise the parents that the infant is not gaining enough weight and further evaluation is needed.
