[quote=Anonymous]I wouldn't be too concerned...Both of my children were average weight at birth (7.4 and 7.8 oz, respectively) and they both grew quite quickly in the first 6 months (they were 70% bf and 30% formula). They were both in the 90-97 percentile for height and the 70-80 percentile for weight. I'd get a second opinion and if there is agreement then I'd get things checked out for peace of mind, but I wouldn't curb feeding yet if your baby is showing hunger cues. I'm small and thin and my husband is tall and thin are our children were big babies. Some people were surprised that my first baby was so big and sometimes they even said things about my older child's weight when she was very little that bordered on inappropriate. Like beyond. Not sure if you're getting comments too, but ignore them.[/quote]
