I can't tell you how many times ~ someone has told me he's BIG !!  I started getting defensive about it.. Then I asked my DR & he said  he's perfect his height & weight are good. If he weighed 25+ pounds with no increase in height we would worry.. He said he will be a football player & that  made his Daddy happy :)  He also told me he with even out & his weight gain has started to slow down, only a pound or two a month now.. :)  This site made be feel better also knowing my son is growing just like he should... lol

It drives me nuts too!!  It's like "I know he's big...he's my son!!"  Our dr. told us the same thing.  My husband is hoping he's in the NBA!! lol  How big was your son at birth?

He was  8 lbs 4 ozs your little guy has the height for NBA.. Patrick was born 6-9-08  & was 25.4 at last mondays vist.. Yea people can be so dumb ~ we were at the mall once & this older lady said, wow he's got a big head.. Before I knew it I said wow you have a big mouth.. she didn't say anything eles to me...lol  He is off the charts too.. But healthy  and happy ~ thank goodness & that's all I care about... I breastfeed & the dr said with breastfeeding they grow quick the frist few months then even out...??

I guess we just have powerful milk then!! lol.  When I told my dr.  (this was at his 4 mo. appt. before any solids) that I was just breastfeeding no solids yet, she told me I must be Wonder Woman.  lol He was 19 lbs 28 inches at 4 months.

My son was born on June 15th, 11 weeks early. He weighed 3lbs 4oz. He wasn't due until Sept 1st. He is doing great and at his 6 month appt he weighed 16lbs 5oz and is 25 inches long! It looks like he's just about caught up comparing to other babies on here. I'm so glad I found this!

Marleigh was born on June 24th and weighede 6lbs 14oz. and 20 inches. She's now 6&1/2 months and weighs 16lbs 12oz and is 28 inches long!!!! She's in the 95th percentile for length and 46th percentile for weight. MD says she's right on track!!!

Jordyn was 6lbs 4oz at birth and not quite 14lbs at 6 months, sounds small but she is the chunky pumpkin of our girls.  Our older daughter was 5lbs 12oz at birth and a peanut at just over 12lbs at 6 months.  Just depends on the kid, eating/sleeping/moving habits, and genetics.  Unless the kid is super over or under the charts they are normal.  Our older daughter was always way under the chart and the Dr. did all the tests in the world just to determine she was as healthy and normal as kids that made it on the chart.  So, if the Dr. says the kids normal and healthy, then be happy!

My daughter was born on June 27th and was 5 lbs 7 ounces (2.5 weeks early), at her six month check up last week she was 12 lbs 6 ounces.  She is a little peanut!

Wow! My daughter was born at 9lbs,2oz on June 10th and is now 22lbs! Sometimes I freak out because I keep having mom's come up to me and say that their 1 year old weighs that.  She seems perfect to me (of course) but I still worry that she won't slow down her weight gain.  I'm thin, and so is her dad.  Still not sure what to make of it..

Well, my daughter was born June 11 and weighed 10 lbs. 7 oz.  Ha!  That's not a typo!  My older son was over 10 lbs, too.  But she has dipped down to the 25-30th percentile in height and weight now.

I'm pretty sure I have the smallest baby. Always seem to go that way, but i try not to compare her. She was born June 27. exactly 2 weeks early. had no problems at all. She weighed 5 lbs 14 oz and 21 inches. We haven't had her check up yet but in November she was at 11 lbs at the doctors office. she is in size 3-6 month clothes but next month will be movin on up. shes in a size 3 diaper.

My twins were born six weeks early on June 8th. At birth my son weighed four pounds ten ounces and was eighteen inches long. At birth my daughter weighed three pounds twelve ounces and was seventeen inches long. At their last doctor's appt, which was six months, my son is now fifteen pounds five ounces and my daughter is fifteen pounds one ounce. At least they were at the beginning of December. And both were the same height.

My little man was born on the 26th at 5lbs 11 oz. We still need to go to our 6 month check up (doctors on holidays) but I'm thinking he's pushing 20 lbs or more.
