Too small? How much your LO weight/height

Liam is 12 weeks 4 days.

He was weighed today (at WIC appt)

He was 13 pounds and was 22½ in.

3-4 weeks ago he was 11# 9 oz and was 21¼ in.

That doesn't seem like much of a growth? I know they hit a growth spurt soon tho.

What does your LO weight/height at or around 12weeks?

We have his 4 month check up coming in Aug. But I may have to get him in sooner, just worried that he's not as big as other babies his age.

My little girl is 13 weeks and is 15 lbs and 25" inches. She's a little chunk and is in the 90% percentile for both, so I would say your little ones size sounds totally normalAnd probably average for the afe. Every baby is so different. 😊

Mine only weighed 11lb at 3 months. We have her 4 month coming up in 2 weeks they've never seemed concerned but I plan on making sure at her next appt. some babies are just small, she was born 6lb12oz

ok... that is exactly what were dealing with!!! 100% i could of wrote it! closer to bed he will take a good feeding. he just drank 5oz FINE. but most feeds are 2 or 2.5 , some 3oz and like 1 a day at 4oz plus one at night time. he was drinking 3 oz a feed or more at just a month old! so im so confused!

my son is going through the same phase where he's only eating 2oz a feeding when he was eating 4oz a week ago. He'll want to eat every 1-2 hours, but no more than 2oz. But he will take 1-2 4oz bottles a day (generally closer to bed time). He doesn't seem too bothered, but if it continues I'm probably going to take him to see his pediatrician

same here. (with the 4month appt) liam was 6 lbs 5 oz at birth. went down to 5lbs 11oz and was back to, and above his birth weight in 8 days. my oldest son (13) was 6# 13oz at birth, and by the time he was 3 months old he was almost 14½ pounds, gaining perfectly. just worried about the slow gain, and that hes not finishing his 4oz bottles. sometimes only taking 2oz and refusing to eat again for 2-3 hrs/next feed. today hes drank 3-4oz a feed tho, so hoping it was just a weird phase.
