Your home is an investment in living as well as in savings. If neglected, it will pay no dividends. If properly maintained and improved, it will pay a high yield in comfort and usefulness for your family and in avoidance of costly repair bills. Home improvements also tend to raise neighborhood standards and, as a result, property values.
Most full term babies weigh between 6 and 9 lb. at birth. Expect your newborn to lose a little weight in the days immediately following birth. The American Pregnancy Association advises that a 5 percent weight loss is normal for formula fed babies, while a 7 to 10 percent loss is average for breastfed infants.
What Does the Average Newborn Weigh? At birth, the average baby weighs about 7.5 pounds, and 95 percent of newborns will be between 5.5 and 9.5 pounds. If your baby falls within this range at birth, thereâs probably no reason to be concerned about her size.
