Jumping off another thread, when did your LO triple or quadruple their birth weight?
My son was 7 lbs 1 oz at birth, and tripled his weight before his first birthday, probably by 11 months of age. He's only just turned one, but it's a fun exercise to guess when he'll be 4x.

She was 7lbs 8oz at birth. She tripled around 1.5. She's 2.5 now and hasn't quadrupled yet (she's 28lbs).

T was almost 8 lbs at birth, she's around 22 lbs so has not tripled yet at 13 mo.

She's 9mo and nearly quadrupled her birth weight. But she was a preemie.

She said was 7lbs 7oz at birth. Tripled weight at about 2 years. Still hasn't quadrupled her weight at 3 years and 25 pounds

DD was 7 lbs 1 oz at birth. She tripled her birth weight just after her first birthday. She is 32 months now and has just about quadrupled (28 lbs).

DS was just under 7 lbs at birth. He tripled his birthweight at just over a year (was 20.5 at his one year appointment) and I think he's probably just quadrupled it because I think he is 28 lbs now! (2 years 10 months)
DD was 6 lbs 7 oz at birth and she is nowhere near tripling her weight, she is super petite at 14 1/2 pounds at 9 months!

DD1 tripled around 24 months. She was 10lb1oz and was a bit over 30 at her two year appointment.
She probably won't quadruple for another year or two.
DD2 will probably triple by two years. She's a peanut, 22 lbs at 15 months 8lbs10oz at birth.

DS had quadrupled his 8.5lbs birth weight at around 2y. Tripled a year.
DD is 15m and is still miles away from even tripling her birthweight.

My son was born 8 lbs 5 oz.
He tripled his birth weight right around his first birthday. He's almost 3, and he's about quadruple his birth weight, has been at this weight for months and months now.

My son was 7lb12oz at birth. At his 2 year checkup he was 23lbs, so he still hasn't tripled his birth weight.

I can't remember with my first - he was 5 lbs at birth and I think he tripled by 9 months and maybe quadrupled by 18 months?
My second was also 5 lbs and I think he tripled at 7 or 8 months? Quadrupled by 15 months.

7lbs6oz at birth and 22lb8oz at 12 months- so just slightly less than tripling.

LO1 was 8 lb 5 oz at birth, and I think he about tripled at 2 years! He doubled his weight within a couple months and then slowed waaay down after 6 months. LO2 is 14 months; she doubled her weight within a few months but has also slowed down and is still several lbs shy of tripling her weight. Our ped. has pointed out that genetics have to take over sometime, and our kids are not destined to be big

Ha! At 14 months and 18lbs DD isn't even close to tripling her birth weight (8lbs). I'm guessing she will be closer to 2 years before she does.

I don't remember the tripling, but I just did a quick check and she's almost exactly 4x her birth weight now at 2.5 years. She was born 6 lbs 15 oz and is now 27 pounds.

Ds1 was 8lbs even. He doubled a little before 4 months. He tripled his birthweight at 1. Quadrupled it around 2.5.
DS 2 just doubled his weight (8-10) at 3 months, which is a little sooner than brother so I'm guessing he'll be tripling quicker too. Kid better walk early because I'm not toting around a 26lb monster at 1!!

My oldest was almost 9lbs at birth and tripled his weight around 15 months. He's 33lbs now at 2.5.
My youngest was a little over 8lbs and he's 23lbs now at 8 months, so very close to tripling his birth weight.

Well, my guy is giant, and he grew super fast. So by 6 mo he tripled it. And at 15 month quadrupled it! Dang.

My son was 7lbs 15oz. He was double at 7 months, tripled at 1 year and quadrupled at 2 years. At 5 years old he has sextupled his birth weight.
My daughter is a peanut in comparison. She doubled at 6 months, tripled around 19 months and at 28 months I don't think she has quadrupled yet.
