33 weekers: weight gain?

samIam7/28

For those of you who had 33 weekers, can you give me a short summary of how they grew in regards to height and weight each month for the first 6 months actual?  I'm starting to worry that Ava isn't gaining enough.

TIA!

9 Months: 18 lbs. 12 oz. Six Months: 15lbs. 10oz. Four Months: 12lbs. 2oz. Three Months: 9lbs. 7oz. Two Months: 7lbs. 8oz. One Month: 5 lbs. 4 oz. Birth Weight: 2lbs. 15 oz.

We think she is around 21.5 pounds now at one year. Her one year pedi apt isn't until next week.

We didn't keep track of her height.

Should I be worried?  Ava is just around 8 lbs at 3 1/2 months.  My pedi never seemed concerned but I just feel that her weight gaining process is going so slow.

If your pedi hasn't expressed any concern over her weight gain I'd try not too worry too much about it (although I know it's hard not to).

I know exactly how you feel about worrying about weight gain. I am obsessed with my ds weight gain. I exclusively breastfeed and my doc told me that formula fed babies gain weight quicker. If your pedi doesn't worry i would think everything is fine but I know that is easier said then done because my pedi is happy and I am still a worrier

I don't have all the stats with me but Marino has consistently gained about 1/2 a pound a week. He weighed 3lb, 2oz at birth and at 6 months he weighed 15 lbs, 2 oz.

He's a 32 weeker, but close enough, right?
