Big baby?

Anyone else concern that they have a big baby? Mine is currently 4 months, 17 pounds and 2feet 2 in. My mom keeps telling he will eventually start growing at a slower pace soon but as a ftm you worry. Maybe I’m just being over dramatic idk, please let me know down below your experiences.

My girl was born small (6 lbs 13 oz 10 days past my due date), but now she’s 3 and a half months old, 13 and a half lbs and 2 ft 2 in. Some babies are bigger and some are taller and some are small. As long as babe is happy and healthy, I wouldn’t be concerned.

I have a big baby. I am not worried about it. Our ped said it does not neccessarily mean he will be super big when he grows up. I am a tall women, my husband is also tall. I hope the baby would be tall as well.

Thank you all! I’m more at ease now, idk why I was worried in the first place, my family is also tall especially from my mom side. I’m 5’6 and baby’s dad is maybe I think 5’8 not that much taller than me. He’s not involved so I don’t know much about his family.

My cousin had a 8lb something baby. Now at 9months he's 30lbs, wearing 24mo clothes. Her doctor isn't concerned. He's breastfed but idk if that has anything to do with it.

Same but there's nothing wrong with a baby being big
