Actually big or small doesnt really matter as long as healthy. My son is 2 years old but now 17 - 18kg. When he was born, he is 3.9kg. When the paed mark my son on the graph, everything is break record!!! And the dr said that graph is from USA for westerner but yet both my son exceed it. Their father (my hubby) is 6'3". I agree with what most say here, gene plays a role.

TS was your baby big at birth?
Diabetics tend to have big babies. Genes is also a contributory factor. Normally a baby would lose some weight during the first week then gradually put on weight. Your baby seems fine, the doctor said so too. This post has been edited by TinyPumpkin: Feb 7 2013, 11:22 AM |

Yes, I do :-) I'm currently using the black & white flash cards for my 3 month old baby. Most of the time she will look attentively on the cards. Good way to calm her down ;-)Do you use Brillkids product?? If yes, can share what product and how do you find it... Thanks |

QUOTE(arthurlwf @ Feb 14 2013, 10:57 AM) Waa... ya husband is about 190 cm height. Actually my baby eat quite a lot. My parents believe to give as much as he can eat. My in law believe to control the diet not to expand the tummy unnecessarily. If we go out for dinner, he can eat one big rice like adult and often more. He is also very very active, run, fall down, etc. Just like normal kids but every time fall down, continue running, not scared. As for the height, not sure cause have not measure recently. Now that you asked, I also become curious. Will try to measure tonight.And WOW.. ya baby boy exceed 100% percentile when ya boy is 17-18kg at 2 years old Btw, at 2 years old, how is ya baby food consumption? And is he very active type of person? And is he above 80 cm height? |
