    Katelyn was born with a thicker body structure and Madelyn was very slime - they've both maintained the same body structure.

    Katelyn born 6lbs 8 oz
    Now she is 22 lbs and 4 oz

    Madelyn born 4lbs 10 oz
    Now she is 19 lbs 6 oz

    What started as 2 lbs difference is now 3 lbs dirrence. The weird thing is that they both drink the same amount of milk BUT Madelyn eats more than Katelyn (substantially more). The Pedi said that Madelyn just has a fast metabolism and since the's a very active baby - that keeps her slim. While Katelyn is very laid back and will crawl but takes lots of short cuts.

    Their head size is only about an inch difference and they are also only an inch apart in height. But Katelyn still appears to be a lot bigger than Madelyn.

    Max: 6 lbs 12 oz, 19-1/4"
    now- 25 lbs, 30"

    Ava: 7 lbs 12 oz, 19-3/4"
    now- 25 lbs, 30-1/2"


    Since birth she has always outweighed him by one lb., until their 9-mo checkup - now they are even! But she's still 1/2" longer...

    You know what. My little ones have always been SO close in size.

    DD was 7 lbs 1 oz at birth, 19.5 inches

    At 4 months...
    DS is 18 lbs 8 oz, 27 inches
    DD is 18 lbs 3 oz, 26 inches

    We had our appointment today and…

    Baby A ( blake)
    Was 7lbs 13 oz (or 14 I need to pull out the book) at birth 21 inches
    Is 17 Lbs 27 ¾ inches long

    Baby B (Audrey)
    Was 8;bs 7oz 22 inches at birth
    Is 18lbs 11oz . 28 inches (although since the nurse measured twice I think that might be wrong and need to recheck it)

    I think my babies might be the odd balls since my DD is the bigger one and has been that way the whole time.

    Mine were 3/4 lb different at birth, and at 4 months are 3 lbs different (larger DS).

    My girls are probably about a pound and a half apart at 8 months old.
