[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]51 lbs for that height is too much. I have a tall, big child who is muscular and big bones--who weighed a lot less at that height. Sounds like you've got two things going. Yes, a tall big child but also one who may already be developing a weight problem while you deny it.[/quote] What is this with calling kids, kids under the age of 5 "muscular". They are NOT muscular. Kids CANNOT be muscular -- not until beyond puberty. Is this just a failure to acknowledge that your kid is overweight?[/quote] I don't know. My just 3 year old is 38" and 33 pounds. He looks "muscular." Even our ped commented on it at his physical. He might not have muscle development but he definitely looks muscular. Odd definition on his upper arms and looks like a 6-pack starter. He looks typical but with some definition. [/quote] He's not muscular. You could say "stocky" or "dense" but really it's just excess weight.[/quote]
