12mth old still small

[SamiH]

My first bubba was 4.125kg and stayed on 95-95th percentile until 4 - DD was 3.57kg so not small - but has just turned 3 and only weight 11kgs!! She dropped quickly to around 10-20 percentile and has pretty much stayed there. However she is happy, healthy and talks far too much But, it caused me a great deal of worry due to the difference between the two in their baby/toddler years.

My DD was 0 wks early and 1.5 kgs she is now 12 months old and is only 9.5 kgs. It takes time for an IUGR baby to catch up. We were told that she will more than likely be petite My DD has a healthy appetite and was told by her Paed to put butter and cream/cream cheese in her mash veges as it would help her along abit.


My DN (dear neice) is almost 1 and only weighs 5.5kgs, I think she has done really well considering she was only 669grams when born.
