    My formula feed baby is 18lbs. Every baby is different. If you want to know if your baby is the norm. you can look at the height/weight scale.

    Like PP said, I think you can find a chart online.

    Mine weighs 15lbs. but she's a peanut, 10th percentile.

    Thanks for your replies .. DD hasn't really gained much since her 6 month appointment so wondering if that is normal.  I will check the charts.

    DD just cracked 13 lbs.  She's tiny - in the 5th percentile.

    About 18lbs at 8 months. Check the WHO breast-fed baby charts, specifically.

    According to our scale at home, DD weighed 17.6 lbs. on her 7 month birthday.  She nurses 5-6 times per day and eats solids 2 times per day.

    at her 6 month appt she was 18lb. She is pretty big. 90th percentile for weight and 95th for length, There are so many babies who are no where near her size. Everyone says how big she is. I wouldn't worry too much about it.

    DS was EBF until 6 months, then we started BLW.  He gets one "solid" meal a day, but only gums down a small amount.

    At 6 months, 20 lbs (95%)

    At 7 months, 22 lbs

    At 8 months, 22 lbs

    He's a tank!

    DD is EBF, 7 mos, and 14.5 pounds. But she's just really petite. Breastfed babies tend to weigh less than formula fed babies; on a chart for ONLY breastfed babies she would be more towards "average" but being measured against all infants she's in the 6th percentile.

    Babies come in all different sizes, your pedi can tell you what percentile your daughter is in.

    DD was 20lbs 2oz at 7.5m, 90th percentile. BF'd four times per day + two solids meals.

    At 7 months, she was 14 lb 3 oz... A peanut in the 5th percentile, but she's always been that way!  Breastfed and 1-2 solid meals per day.
