Is it possible for them to gain weight this fast?

In the last, I'd say two or three days, I've all of a sudden noticed DD feels significantly heavier. Like, a really noticeable difference, others have commented too. She also looks bigger and fatter. Is it possible for her to have gained a noticeable amount of weight in that timeframe? She has been eating lots and drinking a stack of milk in the last week+. Just really surprised me when I picked her up today and was like woah!

yep, with a growth spurt then seem to pile it on overnight. Next week she will probably be much slimmer and about 10cm taller

Insanity! Thanks trav. I couldn't believe it, she's so much bigger everywhere! She even looks older if that makes sense. Babies are just incredible.

I remember looking at DS1 one day and thinking "whoa, I need to put this kids on a diet" and seriously he grew heaps within a couple of weeks of me noticing. Now when I see a little double chin I start organising clothes the next size up because I know a massive stretch is coming.

I actually noticed in your last pics on FB how 'old' bub is looking now. She's really matured into a little lady!
