Our guy is tall even though DH &amp; I aren't. There is like one tall aunt/uncle on each of our sides and amazingly enough, those genes caught our LO. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-509776 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 11:39:55 +0000 T-Mom 509776@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: Actually, he's average height (50%)! I think I just have a little guy overall. Meanwhile his sister is a gigantor. It's strange how the genes get distributed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-509752 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 11:30:41 +0000 Sammyfab 509752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He ballooned for the first 4 months. He doubled his birthweight at 10 weeks and tripled it by 5 months. It slowed at 5.5-6 months where he seemed to lean out a bit. He's still got lots of baby chubs now at 10.5 months but he's definitely not growing as fast. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-509751 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 11:30:34 +0000 winniebee 509751@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>He gained 2 lbs a month during the first 2 months. Then a pound a month thereafter until 7 months. He's 8 months and hasn't been weighed since 7 months, so I'm not sure if his gain has slowed since then, but I don't think it has, I think he's still gainnig at the pace of a pound a month. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-509740 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 11:20:13 +0000 Mrs.B 509740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I feel like A is constantly growing. She has already more then doubled her birth weight at 14 weeks. She is in 6-9 month clothing which fits her perfect right now :(. I'm also curious to know when her growth will slow down a bit. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-509734 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 11:17:24 +0000 skibobrown 509734@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It seems like DD slowed down her weight gain at around 6 months. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-509725 Thu, 17 Jan 2013 11:14:09 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 509725@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumnlove: I'm actually hoping he doesn't have a spurt! My supply is so low due to a breast tissue issue and y doctor says my supply is not going up despite all efforts. So, I'm terrified for the day when LO's intake moves up. But then again maybe he will start solids by then anyways:)</p> <p>@T-Mom: thanks! Do you have a tall little guy? :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-508752 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 17:46:10 +0000 T-Mom 508752@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My DS stayed at the 50% weight percentile until about 6 months, when he dropped to about 10% where he has stayed. Every few months he stretches and thins out, and then plumps up a little. I can't remember exactly what those times were, they kind of just happen, and one day you look at them and realize, wow, you have really grown!<br /> ETA: DS started solids at 6 mo when his weight dipped, but ate really well. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-508747 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 17:43:25 +0000 autumnlove 508747@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@TurtleDoves: Sounds like he is right on track. I'm sure he will hit a spurt soon! :-)</p> <p>My LO's weight gain slowed around 8 months. She weighed 18.5 lbs and at almost 13 months she weighs almost 21 lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-508740 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 17:40:29 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 508740@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Bump </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/whendid-your-los-weight-gain-steady-out-or-slow-down#post-508227 Wed, 16 Jan 2013 14:47:52 +0000 CupQuakeWalk 508227@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My LO has been consuming 24oz since he was 6w old.</p> <p>He was 60% for weight at 8w.<br /> He hasn't change any in his eating other than instead of 6-4oz feedings he is now doing more like 5-5oz feedings (usually not finishing his first AM bottle before going down for his 1st nap).</p> <p>I am not at all worried because he is still a good sized baby and developmentally on schedule, but just wondering!</p> <p>When did your LO grow the most? the least? Was there ever a time that your LO just looked his he or she wasn't really changing?</p> <p>*he's been in 0-3 since 7w and still has room to grow. So, clearly his growth wasn't *that* substantial since then. </p>
