my gal 1yr old only 8.5kg leh...birth weight 2.73kg....height 73cm...anyone have smaller size baby??
don't wori.... i tink some babies r like tat, is u or ur hus small build?? as one of my frene baby gal also like tat, somemore she brought her to poly, e nurse said she underweight, and asked e parents to go for talk on her to increase baby weight...oh dear, very stressed reading tis thread... my ds3 is abt 19 weeks, 6.55kg (height not sure)... based on healthbook, he's in 25% percentile... seems most mommies' babies here are quite chubby... mine seems very small size in comparison... sigh...
sometimes i wonder if it's becos he was born at 37 weeks at 2.88kg oni... or it doesn't affect?? reason i'm wondering abt tis is cos both his bros were born at 38.5 and 39.5 weeks wif birth weight slightly over 3kg... i dun seem to recall them being in the low percentile chart...
Ok ... prepare for the shock.
My Siggi is now 4 months going on 5 ... weight is 8.3kg, just like yours ... by the way, his birthweight was a massive 4.05kg.
Height-wise, he's 63cm ... taken at 4 months during his vaccine.
I am seriously hoping he would slow down on the weight & start growing taller soon ... :embarrassed: :embarrassed:

He has been rejecting his milk for the last 2 months, as in he's taking no more than 300ml a day now (used to take as much as 1 litre a day) ... so he's still hovering around 8kg +/- 500g during the said period.
Have introduced him to semi-solids ... but he's shown a very pronounced preference for steamed/mashed pumpkin & sweet potatoes, over cereal.
OMG ... cannot every meal also give him pumpkin & sweet potato, right?
As a result, Siggi is no longer a giant liao ...
:wink: :wink:

I've actually seen many premature babies being underweight when born ... but go on to be very cute & chubby babies.liang`jia said:I also given birth on the 37th week, but weight already 4.2kg, can't imagine if it is at the 40th week....maybe 5kg!:tlaugh:

Actually, this is a real wonder of life: survival instinct ... they will just automatically wanna take in more, initially to get over the underweight ... but susequently, just to sustain their stretched appetite.
Whatever the case, let them eat while they still want to.
Dun end up like my case ... wanna feed also he reject.
