What are the baby's development indicators at one and a half weeks?

What are the baby's development indicators at one and a half weeks? Parents are very concerned about this issue because the baby has just been born and has not yet completed a complete growth and development process. Therefore, for family members, a detailed understanding of the baby's developmental indicators can enable parents to know the baby's growth and development as quickly as possible and give parents some reference for feeding the baby. Let’s take a look at the introduction to the baby’s development indicators at one and a half weeks.

The average weight of a one and a half week old boy is 5.3-10.7 kg and the average height is 79.4-85.4 cm. The average weight of a girl is 4.7-9.0 kg and the average height is 57.9-74.02 cm.

The younger the baby is, the faster the weight gain is. The first six months after birth is the peak period of weight gain for the baby. The monthly weight gain in the first three months can be 700-900 grams, sometimes even up to 1000 grams per month. The weight gain rate slows down in 6-12 months after birth, with an average increase of 300-400 grams per month. Of course, this is just a reference. After all, every baby's growth and development is different.

A week and a half of babyhood marks the real beginning of the early childhood development stage. Both physically and mentally, the baby is experiencing rapid progress. Your baby should have about 10 deciduous teeth by now, but late tooth eruption does not mean it is abnormal. Just like height, weight, and fontanelle, there are individual differences. A week and a half old baby can squat freely and walk independently. He can also walk by pulling toys, walk backwards, and sometimes even run forward a few steps.

From the above introduction, the developmental indicators of babies at one and a half weeks old are different. Parents need to analyze this issue based on the actual situation of their baby. Some reference data are given above for parents to refer to, but this does not mean that it is abnormal if the baby does not grow to the reference level, so parents should analyze it according to the individual.
