What is the Normal Weight for a Premature Baby?

Premature infants are generally considered normal when their weight reaches over 2.5kg, indicating that their weight has returned to normal. However, a comprehensive examination is still required to assess their growth and development in areas such as the respiratory tract, digestive system, and nervous system for a confirmed diagnosis.

Premature infants are typically born before 37 weeks of gestation and weigh less than 2.5kg. Their organ functions have not yet fully developed, which may lead to immature organ systems, various abnormalities, and potential impacts on their growth and development.

Generally, a weight over 2.5kg is considered normal, but there is no strict weight standard. Instead, it needs to be evaluated based on the organ development of the premature infant. It is necessary to promptly undergo a comprehensive examination at the hospital to determine the growth and development status of the premature infant and make adjustments based on the examination results.

In daily life, it is important to establish good feeding habits. Generally, it is recommended to feed in small meals or at regular intervals and quantities, avoiding overfeeding at once, as this can increase the burden on the gastrointestinal tract and potentially lead to indigestion.
