Hi guys

My little one is 3 months and only weights 4.6kgs. She was born 2.77kgs.

Is this bad? Both hubby and I are petite people. She doesn't look thin, but she doesn't look chubs either..

As long as she is gaining weight and the MCHN isn't concerned.

She sounds like a beautiful little petite poppit!

GG was born at 2.45kg and at 3 months she was aroudn that same weight.....and at 4 months she was 5.6kg......now at 9 months she's 8kg and she is completely healthy.....I wouldnt worry too much about weight unless you find they are getting too thin and if they are unhappy......if they are happy and looking fine then i'm sure your doing a perfect job and have nothing to worry about

Yeah, I'm no expert but I agree with SalTheGal. My bub was about 5.2kg at 3 months, but she was already 3.64kg at birth. So I guess u got to keep in mind that she started off at a lower birth weight too. My bubs is the same in appearance, not too thin but not chubby either.
