Low Birth Weight
My baby lose weight after birth - is that healthy?
Many babies lose some weight the first week after birth. This is a concern for low-birth weight babies. If your baby is borderline low-birth weight it will be important to monitor their weight during the first week. If it dips too low, it might mean they will have to go back into the hospital to be monitored or assisted in gaining some weight.
