I need help with newborn Kcal calculation ASAP!!!

The baby weighs 7.5 lbs. Convert to kg by dividing 7.5 by 2.2 (1 kg = 2.2 lbs) I assume the calorie requirement of 120 is per kg? if so

7.5/2.2 x120 = Kcal requirement

7.5/2.2 x 40 (or 60) = fluid requirement

After you convert wt from lbs to kg you can do all calculations.

1 lb = 16 oz 8 oz = 1/2 or .5 lbs. Review all measurements and conversions.

If you wamted to convert 10 oz to kg first convert oz to lb 10/16. then divide by 2.2 to convert to kg.
