people and drs are so 'funny' with the comments they make! I dont think 10kgs is too big for a 6 month old, ive certainly heard of others that size!! Some babies are just bigger...love the thought of her rolley polly legs!! So munchable! lol. like you said as soon as she starts moving around she will even out! :)
Grace is still little, been stuck at 7.03kg since the 23rd Jan, but moved to another docs after i was told she was underweight a few months ago, the nurse i saw for her jabs yesterday said not to worry about weight to much, aslong and she is happy and healthy looking it really didnt matter too much about the numbers!! Jazz looks and sounds perfect, IMO i would totaly ignore that doctor!!
Imagine if you tried to cut her feeds....she would kick up a stick!! What a silly concept!

hun DO NOT listen to that Dr!!!!! how stupid of him to mention diets at 6months of age....although i have heard it from afew other mums with older bubs..(older than Jack)
gawd...Jack was weighed last week (4months immunisations) and he was 7.4kgs...i am sure he will be around 10+kgs at 6months...and i am NOT at all worried...
hugs hun...now where is a the piccie of her gorgy sumo legs??
jack has mini-michelin-man legs...

By the time they all get to preschool/kindy, you wont be able to tell who were the small ones and who were the big ones.

My boys get real chubby. DS1 is tall and a skinny mini now.
We haven't had DS2 weighed recently but he's up with his weight to. The last time we got him weighed the CHN was rude and was like "what are you feeding him?" As if we'd been stuffing all this food down his throat, but he was only having milk. He was like 5 1/2 months at 9.170kgs. He'll probably be at what your DD is at now if not more.
I'm a worrier too, so I stress over it aswell but the nice CHNs reassure me, aswell as my DP.
Your babygirl is gorgeous, happy, and healthy.
You're doing a fantastic job too.
Big hugs :hug:

ooooh that's so crazy!! I can't believe your GP said that! We're not 6 months yet, but my DS was 7.6kg at 4 mo - see my sig pic - he's just a moonface on shoulders, no neck at all!). And last time we saw our paed he didn't even bother weighing him.... just looked at me and chuckled as he said "yeah, didn't bother weighing him, he's fine".
My sis-in-law (who is now 6' as an adult) was off the charts as a baby - when they flew (internationally) with her at 11 months they were given a bassinet which she didn't even fit in. She spent most of the flight sleeping on the floor cos she was just too big!! Plus, you hear about kids who are "under" on the charts, therefore it goes to show there will be kids "over" on the charts to. Charts schmarts really. I reckon YOU know if she's happy healthy & hungry - let's face it, if she doesn't want to eat she'll let you know.
I think you're doing an awesome job :hug:

Leesha please dont worry
Hamish was 9.5kg at the same age, he is now so skinny it worries me, lol he has gone from being a chubba bub to a little stick.
Lachlan weighed spot on 9kg at six months, im not worried either. I get the oh he is a big boy comments all the time.
They are babies they are all different.
