So for the past 2-3 doctors appt they have told me they think cati beth is under weight. Which I think is crazy! I mean she is a chunky monkey to me.! i also think she is gonna be tall and lanky like her daddy!
At birth she was 5lbs 10 ounces 19.5 inches
3 months she was 10lbs 2 ounces 22.5 inches
6 months she was 16lbs 2 ounces 27 3/4 inches
She will be 9 months on June 27th and Chris took her last week she weighed 16lbs 8 ounces and 30 inches....
What do you think is she small for her age?

I had to get the baby book out, lol.....ok, at 6 months my daughter was 17lbs 3oz and at 9 months she was 20lbs 4oz. In the same breath, my son was 16lbs 12oz at 6 monts and 19lbs 13oz at 9 months. At birth, my son was 5lbs 1oz and my daugter was 8lbs 12 oz!! Don't know if it helps, but this is what I've got for you!

Take a look at a growth chart (do a search online and you'll get tonnes). She seems on the small side for each month except 6 months where it looks like she's at about the 50ith percentile. I didn't look for height (I just did a quick look).
My daughter was:
Birth: 5lbs, 15 oz
3 Months: 13 lbs, 2 oz
6 Months: 16 lbs 1oz (or was it 2 ounces?)
My doctor didn't mention anything about percentiles and didn't measure her height.
