Babies: 9 - 12 Months

Weight and growth question

We had our 6 months appointment last week and it seems that DD only gained half a pound and grew half an inch in comparison with her 5 months appointment. Same thing happened at her 5 months exam. She did however double her weight by 5 months.

Our doctor just said that she did not have her 6 months growth spur and she is still measuring fine. She is 27 inches and 16 lbs.

Did anyone else have this happen to them?

Re: Weight and growth question

  • DD was on track at her 6 month appt but dropped drastically at her 9 month. She only gained 1 lb and 1 inch between 6-9 months. We are trying to get more calories into her and we'll see at a year if it was a fluke or if she has some issues.

    Our pedi said to add more calories since our DD is not taking her 28 oz a day of breastmilk. So we've added yogurt and an egg yolk. Hopefully that will help.
