i had DS weighed today at 28 weeks old, and he came in at 11kg, which according to the scale in the red book is right at the top, 99.6th percentile. He was born at 40 weeks weighing 3kg so below average, and at 22 weeks had climbed up to the 75th percentile, weighing 8.2kg. he's gone all the way through the percentiles.
I haven't bothered getting him weighed any more than that tbh, because i could see he was happy and feeding well - exclusively breast fed till we started weaning 3 weeks ago, and still on BM plus veg/fruit puree for lunch and baby rice for dinner.
Now I'm not worried about any part of his development in general, but the lady who plotted his weight today (Nursery Nurse) said I should see the GP regarding him going so over his birth weight percentile and possibly getting referred to a dietician. I was a bit shocked at the dietician part, surely not? he's hardly eating anything apart from BM and he does that on demand too, so not sure what help a dietician could be to him, and what the GP could even suggest?? Is she being over-cautious? Maybe she thinks i'm feeding him french fries mashed in with the baby rice or something??
ok this is quite long, but i just wanted a mumsnet second opinion not really sure if i should take her seriously or what?
