Child Health Issues

My daughter is 2 months 15 days old. Her birth weight was 2.5 kg and now she is 4.3 kg. She is exclusively breastfed, but her weight gain trend is on the lower side She takes feeds only for 5–6 minutes per session, with one/two 10–15 minute feed in a day. At night she sleeps deeply, and when I wake her up, she drinks milk for a maximum of 5 minutes and then falls asleep again. During day time she will either pulls away from breast or getting distracted or she will be sleepy after 5-6 min. Even if the gap between feeds is only 2 hours, she still feeds for just 5–6 minutes. Her feeding position and latch are correct. Milk supply is also sufficient. She is very active during the day time.  She is urinating 8-10 times a day with good amount. How can I improve her feeding duration and weight gain? Please suggest.

Hi, My son is 16 months old. While playing he suddenly went near door amd someone from other side opened it. As he has small finger its nail is injured and blood came out. He cried a lot.It happened yesterday afternoon. Today in the eveng he is fine wore shoes and went out. In the evening he again crawled and again blood cane out. I am very much wordied about what medicines to use or any cream or something to ease his pain and also heal the nail and finger quickly. Its difficult to stop him, but am worried how painful it will be if he looses his nail. How much time will It take to heal, and how to handle it.
