My girls were 1.5 lbs apart at birth and have continued to remain about a pound apart.

Were your girls far apart in size at birth? Do you know if they are ID or fraternal? Is your bigger girl a better eater? There are so many factors that could impact their sizes.

I have a boy and a girl, so it could just be gender difference. But my son has always been about 2 pounds heavier and 1.5 to 2 inches taller. Our baby girl is tiny, tiny. 6 months old and still wearing 0-3 clothes!

We are 8lbs apart & have been so for the last 3 months. They were 4.3lbs apart at birth. They are both totally normal & doing well.

my boys were 6 oz apart at birth, but because one has always been a good eater and the other a snacker, they quickly deviated from being close in weight.  I'd say around 3-4 months my champ eater was 3-5 lbs heavier than his brother, and at their last weigh in at 2yrs. He was 6.5 lbs heavier, but also 2.5 inches taller )  I'm pretty much buying 4t for him and 3t stuff for his brother.  Get's a bit confusing when dad goes to dress them, and I get a LOT of "they can't be twins!" I guess the saying is true--just because they were in your belly at the same time, doesn't mean they'll be the same person Or something like that

this is almost the same for me. My son has always been 3lbs bigger than my daughter. My daughter is also very tiny and still in 3 month clothing and in size 1 diapers....although she's almost about to switch to 2s. Woo Hoo!!!

My twins had there nine month appointment today and there is a five pound difference between them.

They started off with only a 13 oz difference, but they are built differently and the difference has increased at every well visit.

 

They are both girls if that makes a difference.
