Desired weight of a newborn baby

[lancy]

Hello mummies, wanted to make sure my baby is not over or underweight although gynae keeps on telling me baby is healthy and fine inside. What do you think is the desired weight of a newborn baby?

Hi Lancy, my gynae told me baby should weigh at least 2.5k on delivery. Should have no problem if your baby have reached that weight already

Hello ladies,

At 38 weeks and 2 days, my pink bundle weighs 2.84kg and gynae told me she weighs perfectly.

At birth baby should weigh 7.5 pounds, that's the average weight of newborn baby. The weight of your baby depends on what you've eaten all through your pregnancy, your state of health and nutrients you're getting. If you're overweight then surely your baby will be overweight as well.

Hello new mums,

Normal new birth weight should between 2.8 kilos to 4.1 kilos. If your baby under this weight, it means you have a healthy child.
