That was the other odd thing the nurse said - that they never like children to lose weight but grow into their weight and that we only need DD to grow 6 cm and she would be within healthy range - almost like she was a plant and with a bit more watering she could grow those 6 cm! She is 100 cm which is just above average.
I am not worried about whether she is overweight or not as I can see she isn't, but I do occasionally have these bouts wondering how on earth she can be so heavy and if is indicative of something wrong - her bones being made of heavy metal or something :-) - if you look at the WHO charts - weight for height she is above the 97th percentile for her age - that just amazes me.
