At Cora's 4 month appointment she was 65 in length
33 in weight
And 19 in head circumference
The doctor said she's progressing normally on her own little path, and I feel like she's had a lot of head growth this month.
Just wondering what your percentiles are looking like? :
Re: Percentile? Which are your babies in
90th for height
75-90th for weight
10-20th for head size
She's stayed in the same percentiles pretty much since birth, though she started out in the 50th for height.
It doesn't matter what percentile, as long as they stay on their same personal curve. I think that's what your doctor is saying.
At my son's 4 month appointment he was 50% for weight (14lbs 10ozs), 70% for head circumference (43cm), and 90% for height (26.25inches).
I weighed him in myself when he turned 5 months a couple days ago and he came in at 15lbs 2ozs and 27.5inches! Holy cow! He's going to be way taller than his 5'3" mama!! Definitely takes after his 6'4" daddy!
ETA: As far as paths go, my pedi always lets me know how DS's current percentile compares to his own percentile last time. For example his head size has stayed pretty much the same percentile, but he significantly increased his height percentile and slightly increased his weight percentile since his 2 month check.
I have a Daughter born 2/26/2013. She is pretty much amazing!
At 4 months weight 28%, length 55% and head 50% but to me her head looks so small compared to other babies I know!
at 2 month she was
85% for weight
65% for height
93% for head!
the only thing she's really changed percentiles is height-she was 45% at her 1 month! the other two she has remained consistent
LO has always been around the 45-50% but at her 2 months apt she was down to 9% for height. Both DH and I are shorter so I don't expect she will be very tall but we'll see where she's at next week!

DS was off the chart for height at his 4 month. Weight was 85th, head 75th.
We are both tall, so I'm not surprised, but I thought the height thing would take some time to catch up to him.
At LO's 4 month appointment he was 11.2 lbs, 5-10% in both height and weight. Been the same percentage since he was born.
The doc didn't give me percentiles, but DS had almost the exact same measurements.
