[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]First of all, there are exceptions to the rules. We all know that professional athletes who have BMI >30 with no body fat. Secondly, over 99% is a bit different than 94%, don't you think? [/quote] I'm the PP and I actually agree with this. I'm only saying that the calculator is a flawed tool. that said, OP's child has nearly 13 pounds on my (pretty big) kid, so year, I'd be concerned if the pediatrician was concerned. for the reasons that others have already stated. I'm also wondering if there isn't some level of misunderstanding, only because PP seems to thinks that her child's birth weight was in the 99th%, which it obviously wasn't (or maybe she just meant that it got up to the 99% by three months - it's unclear). In any case, yeah, if my three year old was growing that quickly I'd have it checked out.[/quote]
