So my newborn girl was born weighing 4.3kg (9lb 7oz) and she now weighs 5.2kg at 5 weeks... Is this a good amount of weight to put on???

My friends baby put on 2kg by the time he was 7weeks...

So is this normal!??

    I 'm sorry if you thought I was being rude, that wasn't my intention...the range for normalcy is quite wide with infants. I suspect your doctor will have comforting words for you.

    No need to be dicks about it!

    My doctors appointment is tomorrow I just wanted everyones opinion, if I thought she wasn't healthy then of course she wud be taken straight to hospital asap.!!

    I just meant in comparison (?) to my friends baby is only 1kg enough... Like is that the average weight?

    I'm just being worried new mum..

    But thanks anyway

      People can be rude. But every baby is different. I'm sure your baby girl is fine. :)

    She's a growing baby! Of course it's normal! As long as your'e feeding her 2 ounces every 2 hours and she'll be fine. Of course if you're worried, talk to a pediatrician about it.
