Weight check
My baby boy is 18.4lbs as of his appointment last week, PED is having us back in 1 month for a weight check as she believes he’s too light. He’s not a chubby baby but I didn’t think he was underweight :( anyone else struggling with this? How are we keeping LO’s weight up? I’m breast feeding 4-6x a day, and he’s eating 3 meals of solids or purees daily.

My boy was almost 19 at his 10 month check and he's following his line which is between the 25th and 50th percentile...has he dropped at all?
My son was 17lb at his 9 month appointment and is currently 18lb at 10.5 months and his pediatrician hasn’t been concerned at all. He was born in the 50th percentile but other than that he has always been around the 5-10th percentile. My son isn’t chubby either, but he still drinks 25oz of breast milk a day in addition to multiple meals and snacks. He’s exceeding all milestones though, is super active and is already starting to walk. I don’t feel like my son is small at all but according to the growth charts he is. Honestly I think babies nowadays are just bigger than babies used to be so that has shifted the charts up.
