Mildez, his core strength is good. He's not sitting yet, but he has good head control. Our chiro insisted we do more tummy time with him and it's helped a lot. He's not on solids yet. He's only just started showing an interest and I'd like to get as close to 6 months before starting. I don't know how long he is. When he was weighed at the paed a few weeks ago, she didn't have the measure thingy. His head was 45.5cm and he was 9.8kg 4 months, 1 week. He's in proportion, he's just huge.
The reflux was hell at 4 months! He's now on 10mg of Losec and we've started him on probiotics.
DH and I are both tall. DH is broad. I'm overweight, but wouldn't be "big" otherwise. DS has DH's solid build.
I just want to jump in that he is one of the MOST cutest babies this planet has ever seen...just sayin'.
I have to agree with many of the others that once he starts moving and just with age that you will probably find that it will all balance out. he might just be that really tall kid for awhile. We are mates with a family with a really tall for his age kid and people mistake him for an immature 3-4 year old when he is in fact only cracking 2.5. I think it all comes down to time.
my dd was a kinda slow grower for awhile, but then almost skipped size 2 due to a big growth spurt. weight gain and growth often ebbs and flows, and you might find he has a slow growth period later on.
