    @lindseykaye: i have the same issue except that its poop leaking since she's still having diarrhea issues! the last couple mornings i found her with poop leaking out the back. so sad that she just sleeps through it too! so we're probably going to switch to 3's really soon. i've done way too many loads of laundry the last couple days.

    We only use disposables at night, but have been in 3s since about five months. It was definitely a volume issue more than size. In cloth we only have about four snaps undone around the waist for BG diapers and we are on the middle rise setting. My little guy is very long and on the skinny side. His six month appointment is this week so we will know his official stats then.

    @ChelseaRose: I just switched her to 3's since she had two blowouts this weekend and had been leaking through at night for awhile. In bumgenius she also has about 4 snaps undone. I just can't believe how fast she's growing at this stage!

    C is officially an Amazon baby. We dropped her off this morning at daycare, and I was cooing at this sweet baby who was hanging out nearby. C was taller, heavier, and had a bigger head than her by far LOL. I was so shocked when I watched her stand up and I was like, "Whoa this kid is way older than mine" Then the daycare teacher looked at me and told me she was nine months old.

    We just had my little guy's six month appointment. I have a long skinny baby. He was just over 16 pounds and 28 inches. He only cried for about four seconds after his shots and he's been a little less active today.

    We just had our 6 month appt (1 week early). Lil Chubster was 18 pounds 12 oz and 27 inches. 90% for weight, height, and head circ!

    Ellie had her 6 month checkup this morning!
    17lbs and 26.5 inches - 75% for both. Just about where she's been measuring all along. Still has a little noggin, measuring at about 35% (though I don't have the paperwork with me now and I never remember the head circumference).

    @lindseykaye: I can't wait to see what Lily is on the charts! I think she's about the same as Ellie!

    HOW do we have 6 month olds?!?!?!!

    @mrsjyw: Unbelievable! C's 6 month check up got pushed back a week because of a scheduling issue at the pedi's office (UGH happens CONSTANTLY)....so I won't have her stats until June 7th!

    My little girl weighs 18lbs 1.5oz, and is 28 inches long! (90th percentile for weight, and off the charts for height!)

    She is still in size 3 diapers, and depending on the brand wears 3-6 (Baby Gap), 6-12 and most of her summer stuff that she's in now is 12 month size. Some of her shorts are even 18mo-2T. I don't know why sizing for baby clothes isn't more universal!

    She had her shot last night, and is a little cranky today.. but on the plus side, we have discovered that she loves yogourt!

    @wildcardinside: What a long little lady! And I hear you on the clothing sizes... my girl can still fit into some of her 3 month stuff but also regularly wears 9 month and 12 month stuff, too! I need to clean out her closet of what she's grown out of but it's so hard not to be able to just go by the tags. And there is no way she would stand for me trying on stuff to see if it fits haha!

    we had our 6 month appointment a week early... LO is 18 lbs, 28 inches, 18 inch head... they said percentiles were 75/75/95+ but looking online that seems a bit off.

    he is moving ALL DAY long so his buddha belly is gone and his length is stretching all of his (new, hardly or ever worn) 9 month summer stuff. bleh!!

    C is moving to 9 month Carter's stuff. I just bought her a whole new wardrobe in 9 months this afternoon!!

    Our little peanut is 16 lbs and 26 inches... 50th percentile . With a big head, 17 inches size 3 diapers and getting out the 9 month clothes!

    Had to take C in for a sick visit (ear infection). She was 18 lbs 10 oz two days before her 6 month birthday.

  18. kodybear

    pear / 1616 posts

    at LO's 6 month appt she was 16lb 10 oz (60th percentile), height was 24.75'' (10th percentile) and i don't remember the head measurement but it was 87th percentile!! so basically my baby is all head... and tummy. haha she's in size 3 diapers and is starting to wear 9 month sleepers but 3-6 and 6 month onesies and bottoms.

    At A's 6 mth, 17lbs. 1oz., 27 inches, 18 cm head! Big headed family over here!

    In the past month (since starting solids) my little guy has gained about 1.5 pounds. He needed it too. He only gained about one pound from 4 to 6 months. I guess his body was ready. He's still only about 33rd percentile for weight, but that's up from about 20 percent.

    @mrsjyw: The nurse measured Lily's as 18 cm but the Dr said she must have measured wrong because 18 is off the charts! lol!

    @ChelseaRose: wow, that's great!

    @kml636: @mrsjyw: I think you both mean 18 inches?

    N is almost 23 pounds and 26 inches. Thankfully he started to slow down the weight gain since he started rolling everywhere a month ago. My back is killing me!

    We had our 6m appointment (a little late) the weekend before last. Em was 17lbs, 4oz (67%) and 29" long (99%). She grew 1.75" inches in the five weeks since her last appointment. Whoa nelly, slow down...what happened to my little baby girl??! Almost all of her 6m clothes are packed up now and we've moved on to the 9 and 12 month.

    C is finally at her 6 month well check this morning with DH. She'll be 7 months on Thursday LOL.

    I'll report back with her stats!

  27. kodybear

    pear / 1616 posts

    @highwire: how was her appt? hope her shots were okay!

    @SLR: i know what you mean about them growing too fast! i put her in 12 m onesies thinking she'd have alot of time to grow into it, but it actually fit her pretty well!

    my LO is finally starting to plateau in weight. it seemed like she just jumping in percentiles for each checkup! now i think she found her curve. i think shes hanging around the 60th percentile.

  28. DillonLion

    GOLD / eggplant / 11517 posts

    @kodybear: Appointment went well! No adverse reactions from the shots.

    I left her paperwork at home but I'll post the stats as soon as I get my hands on them. I do know she was 18 lbs 14.5 oz (at a couple of days shy of 7 months)

  29. mrsjyw

    GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts

    weighed him at home on our new scale... i think A is 20-21 lbs! :O

  30. kodybear

    pear / 1616 posts

    i don't think my LO has gained any weight in the last month unless our scale is broken? she wasn't super tiny before (60th percentile at 6 months) so i think she's only down to the 50th percentile. but her chubby cheeks are disappearing!

  31. kml636

    pomegranate / 3225 posts

    @kodybear: aw, I love chubby baby cheeks!

    I think L is in the 50th percentile as well.

    What size diapers are everyone's LOs in? L is leaking out of 3's, I just can't imagine she is ready for 4s!!!

  32. kodybear

    pear / 1616 posts

    @kml636: we're in 3's still! she has the occasional blowout but i probably won't switch for awhile

  33. DillonLion

    GOLD / eggplant / 11517 posts

    @kml636: We just picked up another box of 3s for her. They go up to like 26 lbs I think, so she's not out of that range yet at all. After that we'll probably go up to 4s, but they are more expensive so we are trying to hold out.

  34. lindseykaye

    pear / 1992 posts

    We have Ellie in 3's right now while we are moving (CD usually) and they fit well with no leaks. We do have her in overnights size 4 though, as she was leaking through everything there for a while.

    We don't have any recent stats for A but she is STILL in 0-3 months for tops!!! She's a tall lady but very petite. For pants she's in 6-9 months but they don't fit her around the waist. I never thought she'd get so much wear out of her 0-3 stuff

  36. ChelseaRose

    persimmon / 1161 posts

    @kml636: We mostly CD, but use size 3 in disposables when we use them.

    We had our well baby check (9 month! How did that happen!?) a couple weeks early so that I could get a referral to an ENT. I'm still concerned that he has a tongue and/or lip tie and want it to be formally evaluated.

    He is now up to 50th % for weight (19 lbs 11 oz at 8.5 months), which is much better than the 20th % that he was at 6 months. He's still about 90th % for height (29.5 inches).

    A is still in size 3s... has been in these the longest... and will probably be in them for a while still. he's around 19-20 lbs, 30 inches at just past 8 months!

  38. lindseykaye

    pear / 1992 posts

    So it's kind of awesome because there is a whole new wardrobe opened up in our closet but also totally sad that my teeny weeny baby now fits into her 12 month clothes! Where did she GO? I remember washing and hanging all of these clothes and they seemed so giant...

    @lindseykaye: SERIOUSLY! It's been cooler in the morning when we take walks and I dug out some fall pants to wash and use instead of babylegs... they're all size 18m/24m

  40. mrsjyw

    GOLD / wonderful apricot / 22646 posts

    @lindseykaye: um yes. seriously. just redid his old clothes while putting some 6/6-9 month stuff away. WHERE DID OUR LIL BABES GO. (totally excited for fall gear tho)
