A member asked:

What is the average weight of a 5 months old baby boy

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Jay Park answered

A little over 2 X BW: Full-term born infants gain approximately 20 gms a day during the first 5 months. Would be close to birth weight plus 7.5-8.0 lbs.

A member asked:

Is it safe to use Benzethonium Chloride (such as Wet Ones wipe) on 1-month old infant boy's face? He got acne and Dr suggested Antibacterial soap, but it was hard to apply. I am thinking of using just water and then wipe with Wet One without rinse.
