They're both short for their age so I don't think he'll pass her height soon but weight for sure </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2422257 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 15:10:42 +0000 sungirl 2422257@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Definitely DS2 growing faster. My almost 3.5 DS1 is 37" and 29lbs. His 19 mo old bro is 34.5" and 25lbs. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2422241 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 15:06:04 +0000 ValentineMommy 2422241@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My almost 3 year old is a skinny giant. </p> <p>It appears DS2 is not planning on following in his brothers footsteps unless he has a growth spurt soon (granted, he's only 6m old). DS1 was 3" taller than DS2 at 6m. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421997 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 13:45:42 +0000 erinpye 2421997@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My almost 2 year old has been in 3T for a while, 3.5 year old in girls 5/6. They are both growing like weeds. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421928 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 13:26:49 +0000 clover 2421928@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DD is growing faster since she's only 2 months but DS was bigger than she is at the same age. I highly doubt she'll be as big as her older brother. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421889 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 13:12:28 +0000 winniebee 2421889@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS2 is a bigger kid in general. DS1 is 28 lbs and 36 inches at age 3.5. DS2 is 20 lbs and almost 30 inches at 13 months. He's wearing clothes that DS1 wore at 20 months. I think by the time DS2 is 3, they'll be the same size. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421880 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 13:07:18 +0000 lamariniere 2421880@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>It has been uneven. DS grew a ton his first year and DD not so much. DS slowed down significantly his 2nd year, and DD grew a lot! She is still quite a bit shorter/lighter than him at the same ages. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421626 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:01:24 +0000 lilyann 2421626@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS2 has consistently been 1-2lbs heavier than DS1 at the same ages. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421622 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 11:01:01 +0000 Adira 2421622@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO2 is definitely growing faster. He almost weighs as much as his older brother and they are 21 months apart! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421610 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:56:08 +0000 yin 2421610@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Both very slow, but DS1 is starting to outgrow some of his current clothes and maybe moving onto 5T. DS2 is so tiny and wears a mix of 18m and 2T at 26 months. At least my kids stay in the same size for a long time, maximizing the life of their clothes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421599 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:52:22 +0000 autumnlove 2421599@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>LO 2! But I think a lot of LO 1's clothes got smaller....A lot of our Old Navy &amp; carters stuff isn't true to size and shrinks after a few washes. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421594 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:49:54 +0000 sera_87 2421594@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Yep! Lo2 is 17 months &amp; fitting in 18 month pants &amp; 2T shirts. Lo1 is 3.5yrs and JUST switched to 3T pants and is still wearing 2T shirts. And they're in the same size of diaper (size 5). </p> <p>Lo2 is just a solid chunk. Lo1 is, well, not. </p> <p>We joke all the time that we'll have to start buying lo2 new clothes and lo1 will wear his hand me downs 😂 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421592 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:48:52 +0000 mrsjyw 2421592@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They're both pretty big kids... DS2 I think is taller than his big bro at this age though! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421577 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:42:04 +0000 ValentineMommy 2421577@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>DS1 so far grew way faster than DS2.</p> <p>DS1 was almost 3" taller than DS2 at the same age. DS2 is only 6m old though, so he definitely has time to catch up! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421559 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:33:07 +0000 Anagram 2421559@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My second started out super chunky and was gaining like gangbusters the first two months, but has since slowed down a lot. Her growth rate is now comparable to LO1s, but she's still bigger from those first two months. I think LO 1 was 11.1 lbs at 3 months and LO 2 was 12 lbs even. </p> <p>So not a huge difference, but it shows. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2421555 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:31:46 +0000 MrsRcCar 2421555@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My youngest is going to be bigger then his older brother. My 3y/o is just small. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/which-child-is-growing-faster#post-2420099 Thu, 14 Jan 2016 10:30:00 +0000 BabyBoecksMom 2420099@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm in shock! I just put my 21 month old in my 4 year old's 3T shirt... and it fit! My oldest is so petite, but my youngest is such a chunk that they're almost wearing the same size in everything. When my oldest was 21 months, she was still wearing 18 month clothes! Craziness!</p> <p>Is your youngest growing faster than your older(est) child did? </p>
