Hello my son he is five years old and he is frequently suffering from a cold, coughing some time fever so  what I do.

My baby weighed 3 kg at birth. After 1 month, her weight increased to 3.8 kg, and by 4 months (on February 13th), she weighed 5.050 kg. The doctor expressed concern that her weight gain was slow and recommended supplementing breast milk with formula milk. One week later, on February 20th, her weight increased to 5.220 kg. I'd like to know if her current weight gain is satisfactory.

My 3 year old weight around 13kg getting cold again and again from last 2 months like after 10-15 days her nose start running or sometimes it's congested for many days is it normal in December she was getting high fever along with cough cold fever stay for 3 days but cough and cold last for 10-12 days after 15 days again she's cold and cough start (mild) and stay for 7-8 days and then again after 10 days her nose start running with sneezing....mostly her cold is like congestion she force to clear her phlegm from nose ... if we go with Dctr they always prescribed antibiotic with other medication is it ok to giving that much antibiotic to toddler she is already taking antibiotic 3 times in 2 month what is the reason of cold again and again
