My boy had his a few wks ago (at 10.5 months) & he’s on 98th for both height & weight. HV wasn’t concerned- he certainly isn’t fat, he’s just a big boy- we are all different shapes & sizes, just like babies. What did the HV say?
She just said to keep an eye just to see that she’s gaining gradually not just in one leap she said she’ll start walking soon and will burn more
My daughters has been moved to way after her 1st birthday!! She still drinks a lot of milk though and has an okay amount of food each day (took a long time for her to show any interest) so I’m not sure what to expect! She’s very petite bless her
Initially, when HV weighed my boy, she said she would have to come back & weigh again soon as he had gone from 96th to 98th centile since last being weighed by them (at 13 wks!). She then measured him & he had jumped in his height centiles too so changed her mind cos he is perfectly proportionate. My bonus daughter is 5ft 8 & not even 13, my husband is 6ft 4, so he was never going to be small!
Would depend on when baby wakes up and has a nap etc but here's what our day looks like 7am wake up 7.30am 7oz bottle 8.30am fruit snack 9.30am breakfast 11.30am lunch 12.30pm nap 2.45pm wake up 2.45pm 6oz bottle 4pm savoury snack 5.30pm dinner 7pm 7oz bottle 7.30/7.45 asleep
Mines tomorrow and feel like we’re going to have very similar experiences 😬 But some babies have to be on that percentile otherwise it wouldn’t go up that high! We currently do: 7oz bottle after waking up Breakfast 1-1.5hrs later Nap Snack after nap if breakfast was crap Lunch 11.30/12 Afternoon bottle 2pm Nap Snack 4.30 depending on how much eaten at lunch Dinner 5.45/6 Bedtime bottle 7.30pm We offer fruit with all meals but not as a snack. But she’s definitely got her eating head on at the moment! Keeps asking for more 😂 If she loves food and the health visitor didn’t say anything I really wouldn’t worry too much x
