My LO is now 12 weeks, 7 weeks corrected. I have no idea what is good weight gain for preemies? He was born at 3lbs 13oz, and went down to 3lbs 7oz I think? He is now 8lbs 7oz, is this good? He was putting on between 8-13oz a week, last week it was 3oz and this week 7oz so i think it's slowing down but I guess he can't keep putting on 13oz a week! I would ask my hv but she seems to know nothing about preemies and is on holiday for 3 weeks now. Xx
 
I think his weight gain sounds good and probably along the lines of what a full term baby puts on.
