I worry though bc both boys are so skinny. My littlest is only 5% for weight and my oldest is around 27% Rainbow Sprinkles on "If you have 2+ LOs, have they followed the same growth curve?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-2-los-have-they-followed-the-same-growth-curve#post-1970930 Thu, 04 Dec 2014 13:59:39 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 1970930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ Nope not at all. I have two girls and one has ways been so tiny (like 20th for height until 15 months, maybe 18) and 15th for weight and the other one is really tall (though still slender). She's in the 95th for her height, 50th for weight.

DS was around 50-60% of weight and height. And DD is 80th percentile for weight and 25th for height.

Even my identical twins have different weight percentiles. One was always around 5% while the other bounced between 40-50%. My daughter has always been 90% for height while my 3 biys were usually around 50%.

But DS2 actually grew more and weighs more than big brother did at the same ages. His height is little less I took them at the same time for their 2 year and 4 month check up and their percentiles for height, weight, and head size were exactly the same. lamariniere on "If you have 2+ LOs, have they followed the same growth curve?" https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-2-los-have-they-followed-the-same-growth-curve#post-1970495 Thu, 04 Dec 2014 11:17:47 +0000 lamariniere 1970495@https://boards.hellobee.com/ DD just had her 1 year checkup and she's below 10% for height and weight. At the same age, DS was at the top of both charts. I mentioned this to the ped and he wasn't worried at all and said she is growing just fine. Developmentally she's right on track and even has more words than DS did at the same age, so I'm not worried. But I'm curious, have your LO's followed very different curves or have they been about the same? (I realize that some of the difference probably comes from the fact that they are opposite sexes).
