Answered by Dr. Babita Goel
Your little one's weight gain has been a bit of a rollercoaster.In the first few weeks, babies can have quite rapid weight fluctuations, and it's totally normal. Those early days are all about adjusting to feeding and growth spurts. The initial drop in weight could be due to fluid loss after birth, and then the subsequent gains show that your baby is getting the hang of feeding and growing well. As long as your baby seems content, has regular wet diapers, and is feeding well, there's usually nothing to worry about.
