Does anyone else have a young girl who is slightly overweight and has a tummy and what looks like little breasts? Im very worried about my 7 1/2 year old.

Is her pediatrician concerned?

Not the same symptoms, but when I expressed concerns about early puberty to my pediatrician around this age (my worry was body odor/a need for deodorant), she told me they really only worry if there are multiple signs. Sounds like she just has a little extra body fat, but definitely worth running by your pediatrician for reassurance. Also notable to me was that in this day and age, once they hit 8 years old, puberty signs really aren't considered "early" any more - this surprised me a lot.
