Low weight gains v's being petite??

[Nai]

DD1 was 2.9kg at birth and didn't crack 8kg until 15m - she is still lean but has shot up and is actually quite tall now at 6yo.

Eta, she was fully bf and slept through the night from about 8m old

i think babies with tummy issues (reflux, slow emptying...) can be more unsettled and have more sleep issues. They may be interested in her weight/eating just to check out if that could be affecting her sleep.

It is nice to read this thread. My bubba is tracking along the 3rd percentile (after all three of my others tracked at or above the 97 percentile). I am 95% sure she is fine, and is just a petite bubba (my MIL and SIL's barely come up to my shoulders, so the genetics are there); but there is always that niggling doubt at the back on my mind, because she is so oppersite to what her siblings were.

My DD has always been little. Anyone who knows her will agree and i am CONSTANTLY hearing how little she is. She is 20 months and 10kgs. She's always followed the 10th percentile but has since dropped down, not exactly sure where she is at but she is perfectly healthy.

I don't think yoy have anything to worry about. My dd3 who will be 4 in 2.5 months is only 15kg she was born 4.155kg at 12 months she hadn't broken 8kg. She was abot 10 kg at 2. She is a perfectly happy growing developing little girl.

Thanks again ladies.

I myself am not concerned. She is so happy and healthy and developing beautifuly, she's just little. I just wanted to have the back up in my mind if became a discussion to know it's all good.
