Just minutes old, a baby in Bangladesh faces an uncertain future. With a low birth weight by international standardsless than 2,500 grams, or about five and a half pounds (2.5 kilograms) this baby is much more likely to get sick and to succumb to disease than a newborn of normal size. More than 50 percent of babies in Bangladesh start out underweight.
