What is the normal weight range for a healthy baby during the first 3-4 days of life?

3-5 oz
5-7 oz
8-10 oz
11-13 oz

The correct answer is: 5-7 oz

During the first 3-4 days of life, a healthy baby typically loses some weight before starting to gain it back. The normal weight range for a healthy baby during this time is around 5-7 ounces. This initial weight loss is normal due to factors like fluid loss and adjusting to feeding routines. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.
