    Ok, how big were everyone else's "little" ones at their 6 month Dr. visit? They were almost 14 lbs at their 4 month visit, so I thought they'd be about 17 lbs, or so. When they weighed Jordan, I thought my son had his hand on the scale. But he didn't. She weighed 19 lbs. 8 oz. and was 27 ". Mackenzie was 19 lbs. and 1 oz and 26 and 3/4". I was suprised! I didn't think they gained that much. The doctor and the nurses were loving them and didn't seem concerned at all. They're doing great and are right on target, just chubby!

    Me too!
    My girls were 14.12 and 15.7 at six months - 50th percentile. It sounds like your babies are healthy and doing fine!

    Good job mom! My oldest was that big, but he was all muscle, he hardly had any rolls. :)

    I've got big babies too. At 6 months old they were (Austin) 20 lbs 29inches and (Ryan) 21 lbs 5oz 29.25 inches. My son Ryan is always off the growth chart for his height.

    At our 6 month check up, Lorien was 18.8 lbs, 27 1/2 in. Arwen was 21 lbs and 26 3/4 in. So I guess you could say that I was right there with you. Arwen was not only shorter than her sister but was more than 2 lbs heavier so she was just a great chub ball. I used to be very worried about her weight but after I was assured that it was ok and that I wasn't doing anything wrong (like overfeeding her) I really came to love her chubbiness. So did EVERYONE else. Since she has started to crawl, she is noticeably thining out. I'm actually going to be sad to see her cute chubbiness go :(

    My guys were little, they are actually 17 & 18 lbs now at 8 months. They are at 25%. They always look so tiny to me. My singletons were much bigger at this age even my 8 week preemie. The dr. says they are doing great and not to worry. I love chubby babies!

    I think that is good. At this stage - you really can't be too chubby - they are just getting ready to crawl and walk! Good job with the weight gain!

    Great weights! As long as your doctor isn't concerned, you shouldn't be. They sound like they are doing well.

    Our girls had their 6-month yesterday and are 15lbs13oz & 16lbs1oz. Lots of people think they look big for their age. Whatever! ;)
