[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Huh. Our ped is really great about looking at both height and weight -- I would understand being concerned if your DD weren't in the upper percentile for height as well, but it sounds like she's also tall. My kids are the same way, upper percentiles for both height and weight and our ped (whom I respect immensely) wasn't concerned. Also, my DS gained 18 pounds between his 8th and 9th check-ups, but he had also gained three inches so she was unfazed. The next year he only grew 1/2 inch and hardly a pound / so she was right not to be concerned...it was a growth spurt.[/quote] Op's kid is way more heavy than tall. [/quote] Exactly. Compared to what I know of other kids, the weight being that high is very surprising and not at all accounted for by the height.[/quote]
