my girl at 6 months was 6.1KG, also slightly on the smaller side. i couldn't believe the scales cuz she has chubby cheeks, fat arms and legs.

actu 9kg is abit too havy for a 6mth old. my pd was shocked when he know ds was weighing at 9kg+ cos a 1yo toddler average age is 8 - 10kg. so those babies who weigh 9kg at 6mth, can consider 'overweight' cos they are having a 1yo weight!

so y get so wry since ur baby's weight is normal and not under?

Y'know...as long as your baby is healthy and active, WHO CARES about the weight? Haiz, mummies, please don't compare with other people about your baby's weight, especially those who think that their baby is lightweight.

Don't forget that babies can pack in length instead of in weight. Eva is still under 8 kg for a 10.5 mth old but she's nearly 75 cm. She was 2.76 kg at birth and around 47 cm only. I never once worried about her weight coz she has that chubby look and is super active and healthy (fell ill only once).

So really, take it easy, k?

yup dont forget to take height into acc also..my baby at her last check weighed abt 11kg n 77 cm..so she is tall n big..pd is not worried coz my other 2 were the same..now they r as thin as sticks.
as long ur baby is not severely underweight..n height n weight r more or less proportionate..baby is just fine

i dun think it has nth to do with the milk and food. some babies eat and drink alot of food and milk but still skinny whil some eat n drink normally are v chubby.

actu 7.7kg at 6mth old is a VERY GOOD weight. dun wry so much =)

NAN HA, but i believe her size is due to gene cos both of us very big size, hehe. DS was very chubby when young but now P2 he is very slim although he eat alot. My gal current height is 67cm. DH praying hard hoping they wouldn't be like us, not healthy. ha.....:shyxxx:
