they say she is healthy just small and they don't want her below the 10% range just worried that weight loss may mean she won't gain like she is supposed to

i hope everything is OK and you maybe just having a small baby. i my oldest was 4 lbs 15oz at birth and she was healthy just small and they didn't know why

@babes101116, my concern is that she is only in the 18% percentile. They didn't go into much detail at my appointment but told me if she drops below the 10th percentile they will have to do additional testing in addition to the now almost weekly ultrasound I'm getting. I am at the lower end of the normal weight range just barely out of underweight so I'm just concerted something strange is going on to lose six pounds in a week.

Everyone is different. Lots of moms on here lost weight or didn't gain much. Others of us have gained a bunch
