Orianna was born 4 March weighing 9.9lbs (4.5kgs) and 22.8inches (58cms) at her 6mth check up she was 9.4kgs (20.7lbs) and 72cms (28.3inches) - formula feed all the way - each child is different, my first was 11lbs at birth and is now 108cms and she's only just turned 3 - but hubby and I are both quite tall, it's when they aren't putting on weight at all and are obviously failing to thrive that you and your doc need to worry xc

My daughter was born on March 25th, she weighed 7 lbs 6 oz. and was 17.72 inches long. At her 6 month check up she was 19 lbs, 27-1/4 inches long. 95th percentile for weight, 90th for height. She's my big baby now! She was born one week early and is exclusively breastfed. She's growing like my son (my third child) did! My first two girls didn't hit 19 pounds until after their first birthday!

I exclusively breastfeed and have been giving my baby girl baby food since she was 3months. She was 6 lbs 12 onces 18 in long when she was born on march 29. Now she is 6 months and is only 12 lbs and 24 in long. Doctor says she is in perfect health but underweight for 6 months. She said it was probably hereditary but im still worried.
