Babies weight at 6 weeks

[Kmama2]

Anyone want to share? Birth 7 lbs 9 oz
5 and 1/2 weeks 10 lbs 5 oz. That is with spitting up 40 times a day too.
Yeah for mama's milk!!!

Owen was 8lbs 9oz at birth, then he dropped to 7-15 at a week(my thoughts on this are he wasn't ready to be out due to my c/s, he slept that first week and rarely ate, but he had grown 1/2 an inch). At 6 weeks he was 10lb 11oz, and he'd grown 1 3/4 inches since he'd been born. So he was 22 1/4.

He's getting chubby cheeks and little fat rolls, so darn cute.

Yay for gaining! sorry about all the spit-up though.

My little girl hasn't been weighed since she was a week old, so I don't know, and her one month appointment isn't for another two weeks. But my son has an appt today and I'm very curious how much she weighs, so I think I'm going to ask if they can weigh her, too, at his appointment. It definitely looks like she's gained - she's got a "big" round belly now! She was 8'10" at birth, down to 8'1 at a day old, and back up to 8'11 at a week old, so I'm guessing maybe 10-11 lbs.

ETA: I thought 11 lbs was on the high side. LOL But 10 lbs was close. She is 9 lbs 12 oz at 3 & 1/2 weeks old. We'll find out her weight again in two weeks.

Sadie was 7 lbs. 8 oz. at birth, and at her one month check up 10 lbs. 9 oz. At 6 weeks I'm guessing around 11 lbs. or just over. She was 20 inches at birth and 22 1/2 at one month, so she's definitely a growing girl!

Bridget was 9# 2 ounces at birth and dropped to 8#'s 9 ounces and now weighs 12#'s 8 ounces. She will be 6 weeks tomorrow. We have some good growers!

I have no idea what my daughter weighs at 4 weeks - I don't own a scale or do WBV's. She was 9lbs 7oz, 23 " at birth and is almost ready to go into 6m clothing. She's growing well, that's all I know!

[boobs4milk]

amelia was 6lbs 7.9 oz at birth, dropped to 5lbs 14 oz and was 9lbs at 6 wks. she's 2 months today(8 wks 5 days) and we're thinking she is close to 11 lbs. she also spits up a lot...she'd be 14 lbs if she didn't spit up lol!!!

[cfiddlinmama]

E was 7lbs even at birth and 11 lbs even at 6 weeks. She spits up a lot too. She's definitely taller and is out growing her clothes. It's happening too fast...

[mom-to-jj]

Natalie was 8lbs 5oz at birth. Her hospital discharge weight was 7lbs 14oz. At 2 1/2 weeks, she was up to 9lbs 7oz.

[MsVyky]

Lyra was born 7/9 and at 4 weeks was 8/8

I don't know how much she lost- the hospital didn't weigh her before discharge.

[Charlize]

DD3 was 6 lbs, 10.2 oz at birth.

Thursday at six weeks, two days, she weighed 9 lbs, 6 oz. She is doing extremely well with breastfeeding and I'm very happy, too!

Nate will be 4 weeks old tomorrow. Honestly, I don't know how much he weighs...
He was 6lbs9oz at birth.
At discharge (3 days old) he was 6lbs1oz.
At his weight check (10 days old) he was 6lbs4oz.
His next appointment isn't until December 29th (8 weeks old).

I did weigh him a few days ago using the bathroom scale and it says he weighs 7.2 lbs, but that's probably not very accurate.

We just happened to have a dr. visit today & Baby is exactly 6 weeks today. He weighed in at 14lbs 4oz.

I brought him in to the dr. to have his bizarre belly button THING looked at. He has this ball of flesh left over since his cord fell off, just hanging out of his belly button. It's weird.

everett has this too - proud flesh/granuloma - he's 2mths tomorrow so he'll be seeing my doc now too. my midwife said it's not that unusual, that it will need to get tied off. i hate that it's there so hope to get it sorted soon

[boobs4milk]

omg, really? I'd never heard of of such a thing before. The dr. didn't give it a name either. Thanks, now I have something to research! Does Everett's ooze yellow goo & stain all your newborn clothes? Did it happen to start out looking like a worm & now look like a ball?

I'm sorry for the hijack!

DD was 7 lbs. 13 oz. at birth, and she is over 11 lbs. now at 6 weeks!

didn't mean to hijack either but i hadn't seen anything like it either

not oozing but yes was like a worm but now more ball like (2 balls actually) but it is chafing so there are odd drops of blood.

my midwife says she sees them a few times a year, and they won't go away on their own but there are no nerve endings in there and can either get oozy or bloody (sounds like we each have one of those versions!). she said there is nothing you can do to prevent them, just extra tissue basically.
