POOJA KOTHARIMom of a 8 yr 5 m old boy7 months agoA. At 7.8 kg, your baby has gained weight since birth, which is a positive sign. However, whether your baby is considered underweight depends on his age, height, and growth pattern.
For a baby who was born at 3.2 kg, weight gain should generally follow a healthy trajectory. Babies typically double their birth weight by around 5-6 months and triple it by the time they reach one year. If your baby is under 6 months old, 7.8 kg could be within the normal range for many babies, but it’s best to check against growth charts.
Here are a few things to consider:
Age: The age of your baby is crucial in determining if the weight is appropriate. Growth Patterns: Growth charts can help track whether your baby is following a healthy growth curve. Other Indicators: Healthy babies usually grow well in height, development, and feeding patterns, along with an overall good mood.
If you’re concerned about your baby’s weight, it’s always a good idea to consult your pediatrician, who can track your baby's growth and provide guidance specific to his needs.
