Babies: 3 - 6 Months

Is my dd big?

Wow seems like dd is so big compared to the responses below. She was 16lb 12 oz and 26 inches at 4 mos. I am so used to her but does she look big for 4.5 months to others?

(btw, I think she is perfect, just asking)

Re: Is my dd big?

  • She looks adorable, big or little. DS was 19.5 lbs at 4 months, and I guess he does look bigger than most other babies his age but he's perfect to me too. :)

  • I sometimes feel that way too.  DD had her 4-month today and she weighed in at 16 lbs 1 oz and 26 inches.  Doctor hasn't shown any concern so I try not to worry.  Even though her cousin who is almost a month older weighed in at 13 lbs at her 4-month!

  • We are at 16.7 right now!!!
  • She is perfect!. My DS was 19 lbs (95 %tile) at his 4 month check up. And he is big next to other babies his age. His ped. kept saying he is a healthy boy!!
  • DD was 17 lbs. 8 oz and 26 inches at her 4 month check up.  She's in the 90th and 95th percentiles but I'm glad she's gaining weight.  I'd rather have that than the opposite!!
  • lol. My DD is 19lbs!!! Your DD is perfect. You shouldn't compare them anyway. If my dd compared herself to Heidi Klums baby, she'd probably never eat again..

  • Thanks ladies. I thinks she is perfect and healthy. I just look at her and dont think she is big even though I know she is on the high end of the growth chart. But I absolutely love it!
  • I think it's just a mom thing to worry. My daughter is on the small side and I'm really sensitive to people saying that she's tiny. I think your baby (all your babies) are gorgeous.

  • If it makes you feel better, DS was 16lbs at 2 months and 20 at three months.
  • I have been wondering the same thing... My DD was 15 lbs and 25" at 3 months, so I think we're probably on track to be at a similar weight/length as your DD by 4 months. I dont think your DD looks big at all; She is beautiful by the way!
