What is the average weight gain of the neonate per day?

Correct option is C

Ans (c)
Sol. 100 to 150 grams: This is an unrealistically high daily weight gain for neonates and is more indicative of weekly weight gain.
50 to 60 grams: This range is too high for daily weight gain and may reflect average growth during specific growth spurts.
25 to 30 grams: This matches the typical daily weight gain during the neonatal period and is the correct choice.
5 to 10 grams: This range is too low and more typical of older infants nearing 6 months of age, as growth slows significantly.
