At about the tenth day of life, the newborn regains the lost weight and starts to gain about 28 grams per day. Although the mass of the newborn's brain is about 25% of its final adult brain mass, the mass of the newborn's body is only about 5% of its adult mass. Obviously, a newborn's mass increases with age.
Ounces and pounds are the units used to measure newborns in the United States. In most other countries, the metric system is used, and birth weights are described in kilograms. There are 16 ounces in each pound and 1,000 grams in a kilogram. The average birth weight of a baby is 7 pounds and 8 ounces, or approximately 3.5 kilograms. As a reference, a developing fetus reaches a weight of 20 grams between the 12th and 13th week of gestation.
