I had to check. I felt like she doubled earlier than that. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435364 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 17:28:14 +0000 Rainbow Sprinkles 435364@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She hasn't yet and is almost 7 months.</p> <p>But she is a pretty small baby and weighed 7.13 at birth. That's a lot of weight to double! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435268 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:47:30 +0000 winniebee 435268@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@runsyellowlites: Ugh that's so stressful! I am glad that her issue resolved though.</p> <p>@Mrsbells: That's good that she's doing so well now! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435262 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:45:28 +0000 Mrsbells 435262@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@winniebee: :) my baby was gaining weight like a champ until we tried to reintroduce the bottle and then it slowed down to only 1 oz a month in weight gain. Butnow that she has started solids its back up again </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435260 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:45:06 +0000 SugarplumsMom 435260@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Sometime between 3 and 3 3/4 months. She was born 3.26 kilos.</p> <p>3 months: 6.20 kilos<br /> 3 3/4 months: 6.915 kilos </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435255 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:42:09 +0000 runsyellowlites 435255@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>6 months. She was 6lb 1oz at birth and 12lb 4oz at her 6 months appt. Like I said on the other thread, she didn't have that initial jump b/c of her tongue tie, but has followed the "normal" 3-6 month growth patterns.</p> <p>What really stunk about it is since it wasn't causing her to "lose" her pedi wouldn't recommend clipping it even though I expressed great feeding issues. We had to go on our own to find a pedi dentist that was willing to do it &amp; actually got a small lecture from our pedi when he found out.... Now that it's taken her longer to double, I got alot of pressure to start solids. Took quite a bit for me not to pass the buck back to him when he brought up her slow gain.</p> <p>Sigh... I wish we could find another pedi! Blegh! lol </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435237 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:36:07 +0000 winniebee 435237@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: Nah, I'm just making conversation. He's a peanut, but he's gained like 9 lbs since birth : ) I do think it's common for growth to slow after the first few months though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435233 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:35:06 +0000 BelugaBean 435233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>She just doubled it recently. She was born at 8 lb, 5 oz. Two and a half weeks ago at her 4 month appointment, she was 16 lb and yesterday she was 17 lb, 3 oz so sometime in between. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435232 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:34:43 +0000 Mrsbells 435232@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Oh sorry I must have misread. I was worried because I thought my LO might be behind in her weight gain. But turns out she was just about average. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435221 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:31:32 +0000 winniebee 435221@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: Oh, I'm not worried about LO's weight gain. He's still gaining quite a bit! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/when-did-your-lo-double-their-birth-weight#post-435213 Thu, 06 Dec 2012 16:28:53 +0000 Mrsbells 435213@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Just before she hit 4 months .<br /> I posted about it a while ago because I was worried too.

So probably around 3.5 months. </p> <p>When did your LO double their birth weight? </p>
