Did anyone's DC's growth chart level off?
DD is 16 months and her weight has been leveling off so the ped is sending her to the gastro.
In October at her 12 month, she weighed 19 lbs 2 1/2 oz, at her 16 month only 19 lbs 2 oz. She is definitely not a great eater, but she seems to be thriving otherwise - and she doesn't look unhealthy.
She is just over the 10th % for height but that has been leveling off a bit to - she was just under the 25th at her 4 month visit, up to almost the 50th at 6 months and then back down to 25th at 12 months.
Just wondering if anyone has had any experince with this? She did have reflux as an infant but has been off the medication for that for months now.
My older two were always 50th/50th - so this is all new to me!

DD was 17-4 at a year and 17-14 two months later. She's really only gained like 4 lbs. since 6 months old. We've had her at a GI doctor since a newborn bc of milk allergy that she's since outgrown, but we now have to take her for liver and kidney fxn. tests. Doctors think she's just a small baby but want to just make sure. She's not a big eater!

My dd is 17 months and she was about 20 pounds at her 12 month and like 20.5 at her 15 month. 10% for weight. She's in the 95th for height though. Dd has always been in the 25th for weight, so they just told me to make sure I'm feeding her enough and to keep up on the whole milk. They weren't that concerned. Plus my dh and myself were the same growing up. But now she's 17 months and still 20.5, so I don't know what they will say next month.

dd was 24-12 at 1 year and 24-7 at 15 months. she went from 90% to 50% but there was no concern. she grew a lot in height and eats fairly well.
