When do you start to worry about your lo falling in percentiles?? P has always been very skinny but im kinda worried about his weight. He went from around 30 percentile for weight to 10 % within three months. He has always been non then lower end for weight and Dr didn't seemed concerned. He an average for height.
I'm just worried BC he is skinny and doesn't eat a lot. He gained. A pound within 3 months. He's up to 22 pounds at 18 months. I know I'm probably over thinking this and should not worry but its hard!

T was the same size at 18 months. He's always been a peanut though never bigger than 5-10% for weight. so I try not to worry since he seems to gain on his own curve. Also once kids are mobile they just don't gain as much. I would say as long as your doc isn't concerned don't worry too much. You can also focus on feeding him fattier foods.

I would only worry if my doctor was worried,especially in the toddler phase they are so active. You can try smoothies though that might get your LO to take in more calories

I was told it's if they drop 2 centile curves on the chart. We have issues with LOs weight at the moment.

I think it's really common for kids to thin out at that age. Personally I wouldn't worry to much especially if your doctor isn't.
