A. A newborn baby will lose around 10% of the body weight in the first 15 days and then after we start getting around 25 to 30 g per day. If the baby is on exclusive breast-feeding then the mother should take high-protein diet as that will improve the quality of the milk and also add on the baby’s weightWrite Your Answer Here

A. Don't worry It's very common in infants. for newbies is common to shed some weight after birth and it applies to almost all babies. They burn calories for crying, having milk, breathing etc..it's quite normal.. They shed around 10-15% of birth weight in first two to three weeks and will slowly regain their weight within a month or two.
