Weight gain at 6 weeks

[leash27]

Just wondering how much weight your LO had gained at their 6 week check? Dd had hers yesterday and she weighed 11lbs 1oz, she was 9lbs at birth so has gained just over 2lbs.

She did lose about 7% of her birth weight within the first few days and it took us 3 weeks to get back to it due to struggling with BF and a touch of jaundice. This means she has gained the 2lbs in just over 3 weeks, does this seem like a lot?

My daughter was 9 lbs, 5 oz at birth. She lost a pound during the first week due to issues with breastfeeding and low milk supply, but she gained it back after we started supplementing with formula. She was 10 lbs, 4 oz at her one month checkup. We brought her in for her 2 month visit today, and she's now 12 lbs.

My little girl gained 1.5lbs in 2 weeks and I was told that was good, so I'd think 2lbs in 3 weeks was good too
