Did anyone’s babys’ weight gain slow down from month 5 to 6? My LO only gained like 0.5 oz (not even half a pound!!). Grew 2 inches. He’s SUPER active and eating lots. Lots of crawling and jolly jumper and such so I don’t know if the activity slowed it down. I’m just so confused
My little boy is also half black too lol Africans tend to be tall
@erikak, I’m 5’4. Dad is 5’11. However my husband’s side is tall. He’s actually the shortest lol. And my dad’s side is tall too. Like 6’1-6’4
Yes! Lots of breast milk and solids 3 times a day. He’s for sure doubled his birth weight.
But so glad it’s ok then. I’m blown away he grew 2 inches but gained very little lol
@its.a.bird, ok that makes me feel better haha I hate guidelines. It says it should’ve been 1-1.5 lbs 😳. He’s about 18.2 lbs and 28 inches tall and more than doubled his birth weight. A lot of people say he’s long and slim now
I'm gonna need my weight to slow the fuck down. 😂 I'm about to be 29weeks and weigh 140lbs! 😩.. Gained a total of 19lbs so far.
Weight Gain
What week are you and how much weight have you gained so far?
Doctor said I’ve gained 15 pounds so far and need to slow down. Makes me sad
Happy six months buddy I'm so thankful to be your momma. Someone please slow down time!!! ??
What do you mommas recommend for weight gain in a toddler? My son just had surgery and lost a lot of weight so i wanna help him gain some weight.
@carusod91 he might end up being tall then 😊 I dont know if there is a relationship between being a "tall" baby and being tall later in life, but there are definitely some babies that just seem to grow in length a lot more and faster than other babies.
