What’s your baby’s weight?

My son is 8.5 months (35 weeks) and weighs 8.6kg (18.96 lbs). He’s not gained much weight recently but the lady at baby weigh in clinic said his weight is absolutely fine. His birth weight was 2.2kg he was really tiny.

My boy is 8 months and 26lbs, I will add that he did weigh 9lb 13 when he was born so he was not small to begin with !

My LO is 8 months in a week and I weighed her a few days ago and she’s a diddy 14.6lbs! Don’t forget everyone is all different shapes and sizes xx

My girl was 8.6kg at 32 weeks (had only put on 300g in 2 months) and even dropped a centile but I was told that's completely normal at this stage as long as they're not dropping weight. They're more interested in solids, and might drop milk feeds and are also more active/ mobile

Mine just turned 8 months, weighing in at 9.55kg/21lbs

After 3-4 months (i think 4 months) they start to slow down on weight gain, but its very normal

I don’t know how much my son weights right now - but this is impressive gain weight - you are doing great !

My son is 11.2kg! But he's also 77cm long, he's a big boy and was born at 9lb 5oz! Babies come in all different shapes and sizes, same as we do. If the lady at the baby clinic is happy then I'm sure he's perfectly okay. It sounds like you're doing an amazing job 😊

My daughter weighed exactly 9kg when turned 8 months. She was a tiny baby and at birth weighed only 1.8kg ( just less than 4 pounds).

As long as they are not dropping weights at this age it shouldn't be a concern.

My daughter was born 8lb 5oz. She’s now 8.5 months but was weighed 2 weeks ago, she was sitting at 16lb 4oz at 8 months x

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

Anyone else felt like this?

Hi, I’m 4 months postpartum, little one sleeps through the night and is formula fed, the last week I’ve felt extremely tired and very hungry! Just wondered if anyone else has felt this way/experienced this?

Hey what are your current symptoms?

I’m 37+5

I’m pretty mobile still but anything over a hour or 2 and I’m in discomfort

Getting up from a sitting position is hard

Some of baby’s movements now are bordering on painful especially around my crotch/pelvis

I’m exhausted very easily and nap every single day

Can basically only breathe out my mouth now and I’m snoring and dribbling 😂

Standing in one leg is very painful 😂

Some waves of pain/ tightening but I regular and mild

Low period type aches

And I feel like a fire breathing dragon with this acid reflux

My nose is growing 😂

My fingers swell slightly and go numbs in my sleep so that and constant toilet breaks keep me up ( checked swelling with MW and consultant and all normal, not a worry)


I also do not want to be social in person like I’d rather everyone just be my penpal atm lol


What are your symptoms?
