Babies grow fast and gain weight quickly. Some babies only gain five or six pounds in a month, but the more they can eat, the faster their weight increases. There are also babies who have been eating, but their weight hasn't increased. Parents should pay attention to situations like this and investigate the reasons for their baby's weight loss?
If a baby experiences weight loss, it is important to first identify the cause. Most of the reasons are that the baby may have recently experienced picky eating or loss of appetite, which can also lead to weight loss. In addition, other factors should also be considered that can lead to weight loss, such as recent diarrhea in the baby, which can also cause weight loss. In addition, some chronic diseases can also easily cause weight loss in the baby. If the baby experiences such a situation, it is recommended to take the child to a local hospital for treatment.
Some babies' weight loss may also be a temporary physiological phenomenon. For example, after 3-5 days of birth, the baby's weight will drop to the lowest point, usually on the basis of birth weight. As the baby grows up, the weight will rise again, and most of them can recover to their birth weight within 7-10 days.
For the situation of weight loss in babies, parents should not worry first. They need to check carefully. During this period, the baby's reaction can also know why the baby has lost weight, and then deal with it accordingly.
