Just curious, as ours have jumped from the 9th to the 50th centile in 2 months! Eek... Hoping it's just them getting up to where they would normally be?

DT1 was 5lb4 at birth (25th centile) and at 5 months 13lb1 (9th centile)

DT2 was 5lb8 at birth (25th centile) and at 5 months 14lb0 (25th centile)

My girls are long and skinny.

Hmm... so I checked again, and I guess technically they're within the 25th centile, but still... They do seem very long to me (and to other people, for that matter), so I wonder how much they've also grown length-wise. DH and I are both over 6 feet tall and under 10 stone (well actually that's not truehe's probably more like 11 stonebut still pretty thin) so I'm curious to see if they'll take after us.

Well, I just measured dd, and she's jumped from 25th to 91st centile in length, so maybe that's where the weight is coming from!
