Just curious if you all remember. How much did your babies gain by there 1 month appt? My ds weighed 7lbs 5 oz at birth and at his 1 month appt. on Monday he was 10 lbs 7 oz. The Dr always seems really thrilled with his weight gains but just curious how much all your babies weigh/weighed. Thanks!

My baby was 8lbs at birth. We went every week until the first month so let me think.........he was 10lbs 12oz.

Sounds like your son is gaining great!! Both of my kids were over 11 lbs at birth and lost a lot in the first few days. So they only weighed about 1 lb more at their 1 month appointment as it took 2-3 weeks to get back to birth weight.

Ds was 6.9 at birth, and 10.12 at 1 month. He gained about a lb. a week for months!
