Mine is about 16 kilos.
He is MASSIVE.

DS 2.5 and he weighs not quite 17 kilos - he is extremely tall though and just this morning I was thinking he's verging on skinny now. He's always been off the top of the charts for height and weight and is frequently mistaken for being older. I work on the principle that if they are lively and energetic then they are probably ok!

Lol show of hands! My ds us 15 months and weighs 29lbs but is VERY tall, curently in age 2 clothes . My friend's ds is nearly 3 and weighs 24lbs but is shorter than my ds. There is such a vast range of what's considered normal that I wouldn't worry tbh.

dd2 is nearly 2, and weighs 18lb. She is tiny, and has been under the care of a paed since she dropped off the centiles completely (she was 7 lb 13oz at birth, so really hasn't grown much at all!)

claireybee · 21/11/2008 17:21

DD is 2.5 and weighs 12kg with clothes and shoes on

ang22 · 21/11/2008 17:32

my dd is 2.9 and weighs 28lb which is about two stone. she is quite short thogh and has lost weight in the last couple of months.

Stinkyfeet · 21/11/2008 17:35

Ds2 is 2.9 and weighs about 26 lbs.

ShowOfHands · 21/11/2008 19:30

meandmyjoe, my dd is very tall too. Has been in 2-3 clothing for a while.

LetMeEatCake · 21/11/2008 19:33

dd is 2.5mths just over 2 stone
wearing some 3-4 yr clothing

Katerina75 · 21/11/2008 19:33

ds is 2.5 and weighs around 25lb.

LetMeEatCake · 21/11/2008 19:37

I mean 13.2kg/29lb/2 stone

ruddynorah · 21/11/2008 19:39

i have absolutely no idea. i'm quite shocked you all know so precisely.

dd is 2.6, she's in 2-3 clothes, will be in 3-4 for tops in next couple months.

ilovemydog · 21/11/2008 20:27

I know DD's weight as it was taken at hospital as a matter of course. She has asthma. I am not monitoring her weight.

ohdearwhatamess · 21/11/2008 20:34

I only know because ds1 was weighed recently by the hv as part of his 2 year check.

He's in mainly 18-24 month clothes.

silverfrog · 21/11/2008 20:44

only know what dd2weighs as she is monitored regularly via paed appts. Have absolutely no idea what dd1 weighs - I just know that she grew so fast I had to skip clothes sizes (as have just had to fill in all the gaps due to dd2 not growing )

LadySnotAlot · 21/11/2008 20:59

19lbs - she's only a wee lass, but then so is her mum

raspberrytart · 21/11/2008 21:44

Mmm my ds weighed 3 stone at 3 years old thats 42 lb!!Loves his food!

NotanOtter · 21/11/2008 21:47

ds is 2.9 and BIZARRELY i took him to be weighed this week because he is SKIN and BONE

he is very tall indeed and weighs 32lb

height over 90th centile

weight 50th which is re assuring as he looks skeleton like

thatsnotmymonster · 21/11/2008 22:06

NotanOtter- that's why I weighed her- she is literally skin and bone. Sometimes when I take her hand, I'm actually scared I might break her wrist!

I didn't know with my first 3 as I avoided baby clinics and HV's but dd is on anti-epileptics and the dose is linked to her weight. So we have to weigh her. And thus found out she's a bit underweight which got some docs over-excited and talking about feeding tubes. sigh.
But I've just found some weight charts *just& for quad CP and on those dd is about the 30th centile. Makes sense.

TheProvincialLady · 22/11/2008 09:05

DS is 11.6 kilos or 25.5lbs at 2y 3m. He eats like a dairy intolerant horse but hasn't put on any weight for ages. It does worry me sometimes but I think as long as he is obviously healthy and active there can't be anything wrong. Both DH and I are v slim though and DH is very tall with it and I am short - so far DS is just above average height so I wonder which of us he will take after?

TheProvincialLady · 22/11/2008 09:08

DS was weighed at hospital a couple of weeks ago when he had a chest infection or I wouldn't know his weight either. Unless you count when he jumps up and down on our home scales, when his weight appears to fluctuate between 12 stone and 4lbs

nelix2000 · 24/11/2008 10:08

at 21 months ,my ds is 36 pounds.....he is off the chart height wise tho...he is very very tall for his age and is actually underwirght for his height lol..he is tall and skinny!

nappyaddict · 24/11/2008 10:13

DS is 2.5 (2 years 5 months not 2 and a half) tomorrow and last time i weighed him he was 2 stone 3.

lulalullabye · 24/11/2008 20:48
