Height: 25.5" Weight: 16 lbs 11.5 oz Percentiles: 90th for both Milestones: she rolls back to tummy, sleeps in her crib w/o swaddling, takes a bottle (bf baby). All milestones in my book
Anything else? She wears size 3 diapers and size 6-9 month clothing. Big girl I've got.
Question ladies... Any idea why all of your kiddos are in the 90% for height but, our doctor is saying 60%? I haven't researched if doctors can use different percentile data.

I could be wrong on this, but I think it's because boys and girls are compared separately?

I think that's right. Boys compared to boys and girls to girls.

I had the same question at first, since DD is growing about the same as DS was, but was on a higher percentile at her 2 month check. Then I realized that boys tend to be bigger than girls, and it all made sense.

Our appointment was about two weeks ago...
Height: 23" Weight: 11lbs 15oz Percentiles: 2% for both - I'm not worried he was in the first for three months which was stressful.
Milestones: we told the dr he's not rolling yet and about thirty seconds later voila!! Doc got to share the special moment! Giggles like a fiend and super smiley
jensoprano82 yay for gaining on the growth chart! That must be a huge relief to go up a percentile knowing you have finally found workable solution for his gi issues.

Thank you!!! And suddenly in the last week he is ravenously hungry so just watch us come roaring up the charts now, people!!!
Height - 24.75" (55%) Weight - 15# (68%) though she had a massive poosplosion shortly after.. perhaps we should have re-weighed her lol! Milestones - Rolling tummy to back, back to side, STTN most nights, napping in crib, giggling, grabbing toys (or my hair.. or earrings.. whatever happens to be within reach)
Anything else? She is wearing sz 2 diapers and a mix of 0-3 and 3-6 clothes

DS
Height: I'm actually not sure Weight: 11lb 12oz - 4th percentile Milestones: rolls from back to tummy, is very close to giggling but can be very chatty with his coos and squeals, takes a bottle like a champ now after refusing for weeks

If I could lovetit this more than once, I totally would. DS was a puny peanut at birth at under 10th percentile. The pedi even tried to set my expectation that he may always be on the low end of the growth charts. At 2 months he reached 40th percentile. Now at 4 months, he is over 17lbs and that would make him close to 90th percentile. Your LO will too storm the charts!
DS' check up is Monday. I'm not looking forward to the shots.

Awesome @pikipiko!!!! Oh!!! PSA to The mom's doing shots at the 4mo upcomings: I don't know WHY, but tylenol infant is cherry flavor and BRIGHT RED. Great idea! Really! However, the CVS generic Tylenol has the same ingredients, is a couple bucks cheaper, and is white instead of red
Height - 65cm/25.5in Weight - 7.54kg/16.5lbs Percentiles - 65 for height and 70 for weight Milestones - Finally staring to life his head and chest during tummy time. Reaching and grabbing toys.
Height - 25.75in (75%) Weight - 17lbs 12oz (90%) Milestones - laughing with mummy, enjoying tummy time more now that he's able to hold his head up high.
DS's big Buddha belly and muscular arms require 9-12mos clothing. I'm a petite person at 5'2", it's getting really difficult to carry this little guy!

Yeah I have the dye free version. The dye makes a lot of kids hyper and it's so unneeded I am surprised they still make it with the dye.
Height - 25.25 inches long Weight - 15.5 pds Percentiles - 50% for both. Also 50% for his head circumference, whatever that was Milestones - Rolling like a champ from back to front. Sometimes rolls front to back. All toys go in mouth, and is reaching for toys. Starting to be more distracted and looking around during feeding.

DS has his 4 mon appointment yesterday : Wt is 15 lbs 9oz- 65 percentile Ht 25.25 in - 63 percentile
He is not rolling yet but is super close, his pesky arm gets into the way. Smiles and laughs a TON and everything goes into his mouth. Reaches for stuff and 'talks' all the time (just like mama lol)
Milestones: he is giggling and smiling up a storm, he reaches for and grabs toys and my hair (hello pixie cut here I come). Still no signs of rolling but he found his toes and it is so cute!
junebugjam According to some quick google research, there's some controversial research about food dyes causing hyperactivity. I'm not sure how much I buy into that, but if you're concerned there's other brands that don't have any dyes.
My main concern with getting a dye-free medicine was to prevent stains.
But there's no solid evidence that you shouldn't give your LO Tylenol because of dye reasons. So, I wouldn't say not to give the medicine.
Weight - 13 lbs 4 oz (30 something percentile) Height - 24.5 inches (50 something percentile) Head - 43 cm (90 something percentile) She's tall and skinny with a big noggin! She loves her feet, she's bringing stuff up to her mouth, she love to talk and giggle and she is STTN. No rolling yet but she's close. She gets caught on her shoulder.
