We had our 4 week appt. yesterday (although he'll be 4 weeks tomorrow!) and DS went from 7lb 10oz at birth to 8lb 14oz. Is a little over a pound a typical weight gain? Thanks!
I would think that's normal. DD is breastfed - at birth she was 8lbs 13oz, a few days later at her first pedi appointment she was 8lbs 6oz, and a week later she was 7lbs 13oz. At 4 weeks she was 9lbs 15oz.
We have a slow gainer, but she was barely back to birth weight at 4w.

He went from 7lbs.14oz. to 10 lbs7oz. He is a big boy, but so was his older brother who started out at 9lbs2oz. They both were/are in the 90-95 percentile for height and weight.
Re: how much weight did LO gain at 4 weeks?
