Just wondering what your baby's birth weight was versus the weight when they were released from the hospital.

LO was just over 4# at birth and was only up a few oz at discharge I think. Definitely under 5, thank goodness we had a Chicco Keyfit!

33 weeker, 5lb7oz at birth, 5lb6oz at discharge (15 days in NICU). We had to go for a weight check 2 days after discharge, and she was over birthweight by then. We're still having to add a small amount of formula to her milk to add calories (only 1 teaspoon per 6oz), but should quit that soon.

F was 4 lbs. 4 oz. and I think he was about 4 lbs. 7 oz. at discharge. E was 5 lbs. 15 oz. at birth and about 5 lbs. 9 oz. at discharge. They didn't seem to care about how much they weighed for ours, as long as they showed a pattern of continued growth.. Basically, they had to each gain weight for at least 3 days in a row.
