Wow Jodi you have a big boy compared to my little girl. As of a week ago she was 15lbs 4oz and 25 inches long. She is in the 29th percentile according to the webiste for her weight and 16 percentile for her height, i couldn't remember her head circumfrence, but at her doctors appointment they said she was in the 65 percentile for her head circumfrence.

Thanks, but I tried both of those and they only give you ranges (75th-90th). I'm looking for one that gives an exact number (like 79th) like the doctor's office does. Thanks for looking though!
