18lb 2oz (86th%) 26.5in (74th%). Not like her mama who was off the charts at every visit.

ksimo6

27 inches. 19lbs 9oz. Frank the Tank lives.

ciennah99

16 lbs 12 oz 57% weight, 27.5" 94% length. She was three weeks early & started out at 12% each. We will be outgrowing the 6-9 month clothes very soon & I just switched her over a few weeks ago!

I've still got the bitty baby...
14lbs 9oz (3%)
26" (15%)

HoosOnFirst

I got a shorty!

16.1 lbs (45%)
25.5 in (26%)

mindaa

16.8 lbs (27%)
26.25" (38%)

At 2 months he was in the 5th percentile, so it feels good to see results of all our hard work.

I don't go in until the 30th (actually 6 months on the 21st) but DH weighed her last week and she was 19.5lbs. So this should be interesting. Ha. Mom found my baby book last week and I wasn't as big as her but was still 18+lbs at 6 months.

Fortunately the gain has very clearly slowed to a normal level now. She was almost 18 lbs at 4 months so this is way better than how it used to be (she was born only 7lbs 7oz and was gaining 3lbs/month for the first 2 months, and then still 2+lbs/month for the next two). My breastmilk is apparently more like heavy cream. ;-)

DH took ds to his 6 month check up today. I asked him to call me after. By the time he got on the phone with me he forgot the weight, said he grew and was 18 1/2 inches(which is funny because he was over 21 inches at birth) and said he did not need to go back for his next appt for another 9 months (I said, I think you mean he goes back when he is 9 months) needless to say I thin DH learned a lesson today about accurate information and I will be calling the pediatricians on Monday to get a correct update. But it was a sweet attempt on his part

marlener25

17lbs 12 oz (67%) and 26.75 inches (60%)

Emilywooddesign

Naomi was 14 lbs and 24" and Julian was 18 lbs and 25"

Might not be the place to post but I'm assuming the majority of your LO's had their 6 month vaccines at their 6 month check ins. If so, how did it go? I know I've already been through it twice but I always dread it and my little guy's appointment is on Monday.

We've got a competition!

My girl is 13 lbs 9, 25.5 in

My boy is 12 lbs 9, 25 in

I'll compete for littles AND bigs--if I combine my babes, we're 26 lbs and 50.5 inches!

btm013

Henry is 19.5lbs, 28.5". The 6 month shots weren't bad although mine spiked a fever at night. He was fine by the morning! Good luck

kcl283

15lbs 11oz and 27.5 inches on the 1st. Continuing our long and leAn trend. Born 6lbs 14.5oz 19.5"

mjschenk

17lbs 8oz (50%) 26 in (24%) I didn't think he was short

dancegurl1118

I think it depends what chart they use @mjschenk There are weight to length and weight to age and length to age ratios. My WHO ratio says that 26in is the 50th percentile. And 17,8 is 72nd.

^gender changes the chart as well

aj1327

LO is 20 lbs 3oz and 28 inches.

Big boy!

foxa319

17lbs 14 oz and 28 inches. Amazing how quickly they grow! Slow down little man!

virginiaunicorn11

He's 20 lbs 5 oz. The nurse measured him at 26.75 inches, but both we and the doctor think that was off. He's always measured tall and heavy, and this would move him 25+ percentile points down on the height chart.

However, he's been eating constantly so the Dr said since he's gained weight, now maybe a length growth spurt is coming soon.

Babies, man. Who knows.

He got four shots, but the oral vaccine made him apoplectic. Poor baby.

My girls were born June 3. We just had their 6 month on Tuesday. They're literally a few ounces apart. My girls are staying right together. Still breastfed, and now on cereal and baby food.

M was 13 pounds 14 ounces and 25.75 inches.
H was 13 pounds 10.5 ounces and 25.75 inches.

From everything I've heard, it's odd for the boy to be smaller. Was he smaller at birth? I can't remember.

beckyk9109

I'm terrible and don't remember lengths... I know estimates but not exact since our 6month appt was Nov. 16.

Aria- 14lbs7oz and roughly 25.5inches
Adalynn- 17lbs4oz and roughly 26almost27 inches.

I really thought I had the peanut of J15 babies with Aria. I'll still always call her my peanut since her sister is turning into a chunker compared to her.

My little guy was 14lbs, and 25.5" long.  Dr said he was right below the 50th percentile for height and in the 10th percentile for weight.  He said he was "slim".  Seeing as my DD was the same way, I'm not worried.  He's STTN (has been since 5 weeks) so if he was hungry he wouldn't be sleeping.  He's still in 3 month clothing, although he's starting to get a little too long for it.  The 6 month stuff is huge in the waist though.  Oh well...

He was bigger--5 lbs 10 and she was 5 lbs 3. They both lost more than 10%. He got down to 4 lbs 14, she was at 4 lbs 9.

She's always eaten more than him, and he's WAY wigglier. He's doing much better than her with solids, though. (She eats a few bites, he finishes both their bowls).

Both are still on their growth curves, though, so Doctor isn't worried.

LO is 20 pounds 5 ounces and 27 inches. Not super tall but he's got plenty of rolls

Sammy K

LO is 16 lb (50%) and 25.5 in (45%). She has her second ear infection and shots were awful. The flu shot seems to be the most sore, which the nurse said was common.
