    I know we have had a discussion about this earlier, but I can't remember...
    My girls went to the doc today for cold and Lauren weighed 17.6 & Mattie weighed 17.0, they will be 5 m/o on Dec. 26th. The dr said not to be concerned, but I am...

    So how much did your twins weigh at 5 months old?

    TIA,
    Brandy

    at my boys 4 month they weighed 14lbs 9 oz and 15 lbs 7oz so i would think they would be where your babies are when they are 5 months. I am curious what others weighed at that time

    At their 6 month visit they were 18 and 20 lbs. Sounds like your babies are doing great!

    No need for concern. My twins were 17# and 16#s at their 9 month appointment. They are small, but they are maintaining their curve and are still on the charts. HTH

    It sounds like they're doing great! Lauren is 71% and Mattie is 65%. That's wonderful.

    Mine weighed 11.1 and 11.3 at 4 1/2 months...

    Although they were 2 months early!

    So for comparison, at 6 1/2 months ( 4 1/2 adjusted)- they were 13.4 and 14.2 lbs.

    So your weights sound great!!! [​IMG]

    At a year they were 18.13 and 19 .8 and they were not worried at all- they are skinny and tall, that is just the way they are built!

    My boys were 18.5 lbs. at their 4 months Pedi appt. so I wouldn't worry! At one (tomorrow) they are about 25lbs., it will even out when they are mobile.

    Well mine were born at 32 weeks and got weighed a month ago and DS weighed 17.11lbs and DD only weighed 13.1lb. SO being 8 month old i think i should be more worried than you!!! Theior weight will even out when they start to crawl. x

    My girls are both just over 17 pounds and they'll be 9 months old the day after Christmas. They are around the 25th percentile on the normal growth chart. So I think your girls' weights are fine!

    At 5 months they were 13lb1oz and 13lb2oz (10-25th % on the normal growth chart).
