For those mamas that had around 10lb. babies at birth, what were their weights at their month check-ins until they were a year old?

So DD was a little bit smaller, but she was 8 lb 12 oz at 37 weeks so I'm sure she would have been that big if I went full term! She was 93%ile at birth but quickly dropped to 50% and has stayed pretty steady in the 40-60% range since then.
1 month - 10 lb
2 months - 11 lb 6 oz
4 months - 13 lb 11 oz
6 months - 16 lb
8 months - 17 lb
9 months - 18 lb 11 oz
12 months - 20 lb 4 oz

I don't have the numbers on me at the moment, but always in the 90th percentile for weight. Mine wasn't 10lbs, they were just about 9 pounders.

Mine wasn't that big. He was 8' 10" but he has trending bigger since. At 12 months he was 26 lbs 10 oz. (I don't have his other stats with me but he has consistently been in the 95-99%ile in weight)

DS wasn't quite as big, he was 8lbs 7oz at birth
1m: 10lbs 6oz
2.5m: 14lbs 5oz
3m: 15lbs 7oz
6.5m: 23lbs 2oz
12m: 25lbs 6oz
24m: 35lbs
36m: 40lbs
He was actually heavier at around 9m than 12m because he wasn't fully mobile.

I don't have the numbers, but he started at 8 lbs 14 oz (~80th percentile?) and steadily dropped in percentiles until he leveled out around 6 months at the 15th percentile, where he's stayed for the past 3.5 years.

I don't have the exact weights in front of me, but DD was 10lb 9 oz. at birth and she stayed in the 80% percentile through the first three months and then slowly dropped to 25% over the first year. Part of that was due to un-diagnosed MSPI for the first four months, but her doctor also said that often big babies tend to drop a bit in the first year.
DS was 10lbs 1oz and he stayed 80% for first six months and now at 11 months he's around 50%. He also had MSPI but it was diagnosed early on. Because of both my kids trending down I tend to believe that big babies often level out over time.

DS2 is my big baby
Birth: 9.11
1 month: 12lbs
2 months: 15.8 lbs
4 months: 19 lbs
6 months: 23 lbs
8 months: 27 lbs
He is just about to crawl and I think he'll slow down with his weight gain... he is already in size 5 diapers and 18 month clothing at 8 months and he is a bottomless pit when it comes to eating!

@travellingbee: I know!! It's sort of incredible! He's so freakin heavy to hold!

@Alba4: My 13 month old is 27.5 lbs and he is massive compared to all the other babies. I did have a friend whose 6 month old was 30 lbs. He's now in 1st and is the size of a 4th grader.

My daughter was 9lbs when she was born. She's stayed near the 90-something percentile for weight, but she's off the charts in height. At her 18 month appointment, she was 99.7% in height, which means that only .3% of kids out there are taller than her!
Here's her stats:
Birth: 9 lbs; 20.5"
1 Month: 10 lbs 9 oz; 22.8"
2 Months: 12 lbs 14 oz; 24.3"
3 Months: 13 lbs 15 oz; 24.5"
4 Months: 14 lbs 14 oz; 25.6"
7 Months: 17 lbs 14 oz; 28"
8 Months: 19 lbs 14 oz; 28.5" (big jump in weight probably due to increase in solid foods)
9 Months: 21 lbs 13 oz; 29.1"
12 Months: 24 lbs; 31.6"
15 Months: 26 lbs 3 oz; 33.5"
18 Months: 27 lbs 9 oz; 35"
