I have 4 months kid.Her birth weight was 2.8 kgs and now she is 5.5 kgs.now am feeling that my milk supply is low..what can I do? Am talking all healthy supplements

The child is 4 months old and the child has already gained almost 100% of the birth weight. Generally babies double their weight in 5 months.
I suggest you should start giving some weaning diets to the baby. There is no point in trying to increase your breast milk yield .
Please consult the Paediatrician who has been giving her vaccinations.

You need to always give breast milk only,don't give supplements. According to the Baby's needs ,breasts will supply that amount of milk .
