Baby weight loss

Alexandra

Cross-posted in the BF group. We are supposed to be discharged from the hospital today but one of the night nurses is making a big deal out of our baby's weight loss. She was born on Thursday around noon and as of this early morning, Saturday, she has lost 7.5% of her weight. Does this sound like a questionable amount to you? She was born at 7 lbs 8 oz and is now about 6 lbs 15 oz.
