Not back to birth weight at 2 weeks

EricaK22

My lo will be 3 weeks on tuesday. Last thursday she has a 2 week check up, and she wasn't back to her birth weight, but she's still gaining weight. She was 8lbs 15.5oz Should I be concerned? The dr said to bring her back on thursday for a weight check...I'm not sure what their going to suggest I do if she's not back at 9lbs 3oz? She's eating all the time, has plenty of pee diapers, but doesn't poop everyday, but every other day or every other 2 days, and when she does go it's a lot. Is the pooping this normal for a newborn? I don't remember with my son since I stopped ebfing him at 2 weeks.

My doc said babies born at that size typically have swelling so they "lose" more weight than tinier babies. If she is eating normally and seems to be doing fine I wouldn't stress too much
