[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I had my first baby 2 weeks ago. He was born at 6lbs 2oz. He was full term. I was very worried because that is very small for a full term baby. I read boys are meow 7-8lbs. The doctor assured me that it’s normal and nothing was wrong. He did lose weight but regained his birth weight at 2 weeks. Are some babies just small? [/quote] Who told you that was "very small"?[/quote] OP here. Family and friends. [/quote] OP, this is a situation where everyone is right. Your doctor is right in reassuring you that your baby is healthy and within the normal range. Your family and friends are right that he is small. 6 pounds is definitely on the small side. No need to worry. To answer your question, yes some babies are small. [/quote]
