She is gaining weight but not as much as when she was being exclusively breastfed. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264680 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 13:08:52 +0000 red_seattle 264680@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Baby X doubled his birth weight around 7.5 months, if I had to guess. We don't weigh him between doctor appointments, but he was 8lbs at birth, 15lbs at 6 months, and 17lbs at 9 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264667 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 13:05:05 +0000 Mrs.M57 264667@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think Lily is probably there she will be 4 months on the 28. She was 13 lbs 12 oz at 3 months 1 week. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264658 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 13:00:29 +0000 formula323 264658@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@regberadaisy @mrsjazz I know! LO is safely in the 98th percentile. She's already hit 16 lbs at 12 weeks, holy cow. I'm just grateful my milk supply has been able to match her appetite so far. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264616 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 12:28:56 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 264616@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She is three months old now and is still three pounds away from doubling her birth weight (which would be 14 lbs). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264586 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 12:06:46 +0000 purrpletulips 264586@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>If I recall correctly not until almost 12 months (was 8lb 0.07oz at birth) but she had grown almost a foot in that year; at 28m she weighs 25lbs and was almost 3ft tall </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264529 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 11:23:30 +0000 sandy 264529@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO was 8lbs 8oz at birth; EBF; started solids at 6 months and she was 16lbs 3oz at her 6 month check up </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264522 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 11:14:50 +0000 mrsjazz 264522@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@formula323: Whoa baby! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264520 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 11:14:28 +0000 mrsjazz 264520@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO was 6lbs. 11 oz. at birth. She doubled her birth weight between 2 and 3 months. At 4 months she is 15 lbs. But she gained a lot during her first 6 weeks--her pediatrician said she was way above average for weight gain for EBF babies at that time. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264517 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 11:12:33 +0000 Sammyfab 264517@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO doubled his birthweight at about 10 weeks?

I believe they want babies to reach that mark around 6 months, generally. My first baby doubled it somewhere around 5 months I think (she was 100% FF at that point)... My second baby, not til 7ish months (she was EBF). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264485 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 10:35:38 +0000 littlek 264485@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO doubled his birth weight really fast (within 2 months) but he was born at 4.5 lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/at-what-age-did-your-baby-double-hisher-birth-weight#post-264482 Mon, 20 Aug 2012 10:30:15 +0000 regberadaisy 264482@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@formula323: WOW!

She only just doubled her birthweight at nearly 4 months old. How old was your LO when they doubled their birth weight </p>
