    Weight/Growth between 2, 3 and 4

    I'm just trying to find out what sort of growth (height and weight) is "normal" (I am aware all kids grow differently etc) for between 2, 3 and 4 years.

    How much did your child weigh at 2, 3 and then at 4 years old?

    Thanks x

    Hmm from memory, DS weighed the same as DD1 at 2, so that would have been like 12/13kg? Then he took a long time to get to 15kg, so I would say he was about that when he was 3, and now he's just turned 4 and he's 17kg. So he gains about 2kg a year on average.

    Thanks!

    So a 1-2kg over a year would be about "normal" then?

    I would think so Sal, it is here anyhow.
    DD is tall, thin, and has DH's genes in that regard. (lucky girl missed the short and stumpy! lol)
