How much should a baby weigh?
I had a big baby too, she was 4.38kg and 53cm at birth. The biggest baby in the maternity ward, beat the next biggest by over a kilo! Ha ha. She slimmed down after that though, didnt keep up with the weight curve. According to WHO (and someone has already given the link I see to their growth chart) he 'should' be a little under 6kg at 5wks. Are you worried he's gained too much? Sounds like he's following the curve.... each baby is different, and as long as you arent overfeeding him I'm sure he'll be just fine! Have fun with your little one, he'll be crawling before you know it.

How much do baby mice weigh when they're 3 weeks old? How much grams do they gain each week?
I wouldn't worry about it, especially as they're still alive at three weeks of age unless you're handfeeding them. Mama will take care of them. (well, she should.) I had a mouse give birth to a litter of six, and there were five normal sized ones and a smaller youngster. In every litter there will ALWAYS be a runt, there isn't anything you can do to stop that, what you can do to help is give it supplementary feeding. I had a small critter keeper tank, that I put the runt in for about 10 mins twice a day, with a small bowl of normal mouse food, supplemented with extra fatty nuts and tasty sunflower seeds, they love that. The fat in them helps the runt to fill out and grow well as well as giving it a opportunity to eat without it's boisterious siblings pinching it's food/ disturbing it. So if you're still worried, why not take mama (and any other adult mice) to be handled and when you/they've had enough put them into a play/activity cage which they can explore and have fun without the babies. And while that is going on, give the babies normal mouse food but try to give them extra fatty and nutritional food like nuts, and sunflower seeds. If there is a runt as well, why not do the same thing that I did.. but make sure that it is not away from mama and the others for too long. At three weeks of age, young mice won't be eating very much. Give them new food sources to investigate and eat gradually. Ie, a slice of bread. I used to take a slice, make a hole in the middle, and pop it in the cage and stand/lean it against something so the mice could go under and eat it from under it. Or a sprig of broccoli.. I used to give them small branches of broccoli when I could, they loved it. They sat for ages nipping the small dark green pieces off but didn't eat much of the stalks. I don't think the weight matters too much but just by looking at them you should be able to tell if they're well fed or not. Good luck! J.
What is the weight of a newborn baby?
Well, mine weighed 6 lbs., 9 oz., 7 lbs., 3 oz., and 7 lbs., 6 oz.Those are fairly normal weights for full-term newborns.I believe I weighed 5 lb., 6 oz. That’s a little light, but still within normal range for a full-term infant. My parents were told to feed me every three hours, instead of every four. Those were the days of rigidly controlled, scheduled bottle feeding.Babies born before full term are of course going to weigh less, sometimes considerably less. I’ve heard of some preemies who weighed two pounds, even a little less. Of course, not all of them survive.Some very large babies weigh more. I’ve heard of some babies weighing over ten pounds at birth. I hope their mothers had C-sections. That’s an awful lot of baby to squeeze out of a small opening!
How much is my baby supposed to weigh at 24 weeks???? His estimated weight is 1 pound and 11 ounces is that ok
thats actually a little big for 24 weeks. My daughter was born at 25 weeks, 1 day and weighed 1lb 10oz and the doctors thought that was above average for a 25 weeker. Most 24 weekers that I saw in the NICU were about 1lb 4oz, sometimes less and sometimes more. A baby isnt usually 2 pounds until 27-28 weeks.

How much should my baby weigh at 36.3 weeks of pregnancy? I checked and the baby is 3kgs now. should I be worried whether it’ll be overweight by 40 weeks? Considering I’m aiming a normal delivery.
Im not sure how you're measuring the weight of the baby.Like others have said, it's not as simple as deducting your pre-pregnancy weight, and even weight estimations using measurements obtained through an ultrasound are notoriously inaccurate.What I can say though, is not to worry about the baby being “overweight”. And if I can offer any reassurance as a fellow woman, then I gave birth to a 10lb2 baby, in my bedroom, without any problems.Millions of years of evolution have prepared us for this, I know nature isn't perfect, but our bodies are very capable and instinctively know what to do.I recommend watching some natural birth videos (try YouTube, search natural, hypnobirth, waterbirth etc) to give you a bit of a boost that you can do this (and a little cry if you're anything like me) and that it's not like in the movies.Enjoy the rest of your pregnancy and good luck. Not long and you'll meet your baby!
