    My DD was 7.2 at 8months and is about to have another weigh next week. I'm thinking she'll be between the 8-9ish mark now She's always been on the smaller side but always in proportion with visable growth. She even has some little fat rolls You would know in yourself whether or not there is reason for concern.

    FWIW i get the 'oh she's so small' and 'oh she's so light' comments all the time too

    DS was 11kg but he was a tall/big boy. people often comment on how big (tall) he is & at 15kg now, they don't believe he's not 2.5 yet

    Both my boys were a bit over 12kg at 12 months, but we got comments about how big they were. DD just had her 6 month check and she was 8.1kg, so as big as your DD already. I guess I just produce sizable children.
    I would probably look at your DD and think she was tiny, but from reading through all the other posts it sounds like there are plenty of other bubs as small as her.

    I think Moo was 12kg by age 1, but he was 9lb at birth and is a very solid little boy.

    My DD was between 7 and 8 kgs when she was 1. She is definitely small for her age, but that's cool, I just got to enjoy having a 'baby' for much longer than my friends with average sized or big kids

    I don't even think DD had hit 8kgs at 12 months... i just checked her blue book and its not written in there but at 9 months she was 7.8kgs and i know she stayed that weight for a while because she was up and walking at 11 months.

    But shes 17 months now and is a smidgen under 11kgs.

    Ds is 10.5kg which is 50% for boys at 12 months. Girls are different though. the book says she would then be in the 3rd % but no one ever really goes by the book once they walk cos they burn off so much more energy. I wouldn't be concerned just yet. Some kids are just smaller then others. And my dad always says 'good things come in small packages. But so does dynamite'

    Ds1 was big - maybe 11 or 12 kg. He is 4 now and about 15.5-16 kg
    Ds2 is little - he was 9 kg at 18 months - now at close to 2.5 he is 11.5 and growing. My bet is he will also be around 15kg at 4 yo
    All normal!

    DS was 8kgs (I can't remember exactly... I think 8.2?) (he was 4.02kgs at birth)

    DD was 10.4 (I think).

    DS is still a skinny boy, 16kgs at nearly 4&1/2. DD at 2 &1/2 is nearly 15kgs.

    DD1 was 8kgs and DD2 was 7kgs. DD2 is still only 12.5kgs at 3.5 yrs so she's still a skinny minny.

    TBH, after the initial concern that they were tiny (and I do still have occasional concerns for DD2), I'm relieved they're little lightweights. Given their age difference, there have been many occasions when I've had to carry both of them so if they had been "normal" I would never have coped.

    As a pp said, the range of normal is enormous and I think the only important thing is that your LO is energetic and alert.
