My son is almost 16kgs at 18 months however his height and head circumference is also in the 98th percentile. I think it’s all relevant to proportion.
Your girl is probably just a small kid, she looks beautiful and healthy to me. X

I agree she looks healthy and happy. My 18m old girl is 11.9 and also never stops eating and bouncing off the walls lol

She is getting weighed tomorrow fingers crossed she's put some weight on 🤞🤞

I’ve been worried about my daughter too, everyone keeps saying how small she is at 19 months she is 9.5kg. But the doctor says she’s fine but said a multi vitamin might help.

My 20.5 month old is only 11kg

My 20 month old has weighed 10.5 kgs for the longest time now. He eats so much too!! It’ll just take time, every baby is different. As long as they’re happy and healthy :)

My daughter is 20 months and 12kg and that’s apparently average?
Get checked if concerned

shower infront of children

Is it weird to shower infront of your children, or your children see you naked?
At what age should this stop?

I’m just looking at what everyone’s thoughts are as I have a 7 month old and at the moment it’s hard for me to shower without him getting upset.

We contact nap atm, otherwise I'd shower when he sleeps!

It’s easier to bring his play mat into the bathroom whilst I shower so i can at least wash, else i have to wait for my husband to arrive home at 5/6pm.

Keen to see what people's opinions are and how other people do this!

GIRL DADS TAKING DAUGHTER TO BATHROOM IN PUBLIC

If a girl dad needs to take his daughter to the bathroom in public and there are no family bathrooms … I swear video online of a dad saying he uses the women’s bathroom but always knocks and announces ‘girl dad helping my daughter go to the bathroom’ and I love that idea and mens rooms are disgusting but wanted to see everyone’s thoughts

Dummies

What’s everyone’s views on dummies? Are you planning to use them and if so at what age ? I am breastfeeding and my midwife said to avoid them as it might effect feeding but baby is feeding really well now and he has now found his thumb to suck for comfort ! I would prefer him to use a sterilised dummy than his hands that might carry germs but he is only 3.5 weeks not sure if it’s too early ?
