DD2 was 6 months yesterday 6-23 and had her appointment today. She was 26" (50%) and 14lbs 10oz (25%). DD1 was doing a check up for preschool. She is 3 and her stats were 31.4lbs (50%) and 41.75" (90%)

We don't have dd2's 6m visit until July 25th, but I'm so curious about how much she's grown. She is sooooo long that sometimes it feels like I'm nursing a toddler.
They also need to make baby clothes in extended thigh sizes. I can barely get anything around this girl's chunky hams!

We had our appt today and it went well! She took her shots like a champ. We were given the go ahead on fruit and veggies (1tbsp-ish per meal) and 1tbsp of a protein (chicken/turkey/lamb/yogurt/peanut butter) due to her size. Did anyone else hear the peanut butter is ok?? That's the only thing we've actively avoided until a year in the past. New research, blah blah blah. Due to our lack of allergies I'm going for it, but it seems so weird! She's 13lbs even and 25 inches long.

Our pedi told us the new peanut butter research. I'm holding off until DD2 is 1. That's what we did with DD1 and no allergies.

DD had her appt this week. Weight is 15.6 lbs Height is 26.5" Head... Not sure on the number but is in the 75 percentile
I started solids 2 weeks prior to the 6 month mark. Including rice and oat cereals, sweet potato, apple and green beans. I did wait 3 days before introducing new foods. Apparently the solids have helped chunk her up (she was in the 25 percentile at 4 months and is now in the 50th! Woooo!)
DH took G since I couldn't miss work. All I got from him so far was he weighs 18 pounds and 26 1/2 inches. We just switched to Nutramigen for allergies and so far his ear infections have healed and his skin is looking so much better. I just hate the cost.

DS turned 6 months yesterday. The time has just flown.
He's still small at 14 lb, 8.5 oz (5th %ile, up from 2nd at 5 mo). Length at 26in (23rd %ile which is way down from 4 mo). Don't remember head circumference, but it was stable from last time.
ETA: He was 9 lb at birth, so nowhere close to doubling his weight!
DD3's check up was closer to 7 months than 6, but since she was 4 weeks early I guess it all evens out I had to go convert, but it looks like 15lbs and 25inches, both pretty much the 25th percentile. So proportional but on the smaller end, same as DDs 1+2.

Haha. Yeah, I know. It's nuts. I am trying to stop saying how huge she is all the time because I don't want her or dd1 growing up with that ingrained in their minds, but... She's huge! She is fully in 18 month clothes now, and is probably about 4 pounds lighter than my 2 year old.

DD had her appt today and is officially 6 mos today! She weighed 18 lbs 2oz & 27 inches. She hated her shots and refused to nurse. Screamed all the way to the mall where we were going school shopping for DS. I got her up in the ring sling and she passed out and slept for over 2 hours between the sling and the stroller. Made for a nice shopping trip and lunch with DS. 😁 No fever so far this time so keeping my FX that doesn't change.
Oh hai. DD2's 6 month visit was a full month ago but she was - 16lbs 5.8oz 28.5" and 16.75" head circumference. %iles around 50-60th but 95th for height. I make tall babies. DD1 was off the chart at this age and is still about 75th %ile at 2 1/2 years old.
