How big are they now? - Page 2

post #21 of 43
I was at the doctor's office on Friday (my oldest son had to get stitches out of his head!), and I weighed Theresa. She was 11 pounds 7 ounces on Friday and she was 9 weeks. She was born at 8 pounds 12 ounces.

G is 10 weeks old today. He is 11lbs. He was 20.5" at the doctor appt. two weeks ago, but I don't believe it b/c he has outgrown all of his clothes length wise and according to them, he gained less than an inch.

He was 6lbs 13.5oz at birth and 6 1/2lbs at hospital discharge.

Darcy was 10lbs 6oz when she was born.
At 12 weeks old, she is 11lbs 6oz .... she's a very slow gainer in weight, although her height has increased by 3".

Griffin was 8 lbs at birth and now at 13wks he weighs 13.5 lbs. Not sure about length.

How are you mamas with the chunkers doing with babywearing?
post #25 of 43
nak- 14 lbs 13 oz now at 12 wks (8 lbs 9 oz at birth). Having a chunky baby is so foreign to me, as DD started at a slightly higher weight but gained much more slowly.

Babywearing has def been harder at first, as he was too chunky to fit in the sling lying down without getting smooshed. Now that he is stronger, he does great in sling, since he's happy to face out.

DD was 8 lbs 1 oz & 21" @ birth.

She was gaining a pound a wk for the 1st 3 wks (11 lbs 1 oz by the Saturday before she turned 3 wks in light clothing according to the Post Office scale) then went to .5 lb/wk since so as of Monday she was about 14 lbs (MILs scale is old school from DH and SILs so if you have a wiggly baby sort of hard to get exact as it moves).

At 6 wks, I measured DD at 24" and as of today at 9.5 wks she is 25". One more inch and I will have to get a new forward facing/high back booster car seat for DS1 so DD can go in his convertible car seat.

Weight is is .5 lb/wk lighter than my boys since 3 wks but length wise she is keeping up with DS1 (DS2 was slightly slower but he was my longest at 22" coming out). I like to fatten them up quickly and make them grow in height fast too. DD has been in 3-6 months clothes since 4 wks and shortly will be in 6-9 months though I have already put her in some and not all are that big on her and she is not even 10 wks yet!

I have no idea about the length of my little Millee, but at 14 wks she is 14lbs 5oz she was 8 lbs even at birth! Baby wearing is totally great she loves the ergo and that's what we've been sticking with since the beginning! I always have chunky babies and I think it makes it easier, they don't seem quite as fragile as skinny babies!!

12 lbs 6 oz yesterday at almost 11 weeks ... and now I understand how some of you are in 6 mo clothes already! I dug out all her 3-6 mo clothes a week or so ago, only to discover that half of them are almost exactly the same size as her bigger 0-3 mo clothes. What's up with that?

Haven't been here in a while but I have a peanut and thought it was awful interesting. My dd was 5lbs 7oz 19in at birth full term and she just went to the ped for a cold at almost 13 weeks she is only 10lbs 9oz 22in. I suppose thats almost double her weight but she is still sooo small.

Beauty is 15 lbs something and 23 inches at 15 weeks, from 7 lbs 6 oz and 20 3/4 inches at birth. She went from long and skinny to buddah baby and short. But she's beautiful...I'm having to train myself to keep that thought to myself because I don't want to start her caring about her appearance from hearing me comment on it all the time.

I'm Sad and Happy!

OMg they grow up too fast! My little Millee is CRAWLING how does this happen! She is a little over 4mos and I can't believe it! I love that she is a mover, but just sad that she's not a little baby anymore! It of course makes me want another one, but i am really enjoying my 3 girls!:
