Is my baby too small?

Question

So I have been keeping track of Gabby's weight on Glow. It says she is only in the 10th percentile. I felt she was average size. I don't think she looks small. But maybe she is. What do you think?

Answer

Like the other poster said, if her doctor isn't concerned...however, she has been dropping percentiles which is not usually what you want to see. Did you ask your doctor?

Answer

I think they’re supposed to gain around an ounce a day. That being said she looks perfectly healthy to me!

Answer

My girl is 11 weeks and is 8lbs11oz and 21” long.

Answer

She’s gaining weight and that’s what matters.

Answer

Baby should be gaining about a half oz to 1 oz per day which equates between 1 to 2 lbs per month. Definitely speak with your pediatrician regarding her weight. I had to supplement with formula because my guy wasnt gaining his first month. He was In the 3rd percentile. Now he is in the 14th percentile at 2 months.

Answer

I agree with if your pediatrician isn't worried, I wouldn't say there's a problem! My girl is 3 months and just hit 10lbs

Answer

My baby is in the 5th percentile, but he was born at 6 lbs 2 oz and has been on a steady track with his weight so my ped isn’t worried. As long as she’s gaining appropriately that’s what matters.

Answer

She’s probably just petite. My guy was 13 lb 10 oz 23.5 in long at his two month appointment. My nieces daughter is 6 months old and weighs the same as him. He’s just a big baby and she has a little baby, nothing wrong with either

Answer

She’s perfect.  So is my son, also in the 10th percentile.  We’re all unique and that’s how it’s supposed to be.  As long as she’s happy and healthy you have nothing to worry about.

Answer

Your baby is bigger than mine! 😂 10 week at 10lbs 21inches
