DS is 10 months (tomorrow) and weighs 2 stone. He was a month prem and was 6lbs 8oz at birth! He was weaned at 6 months and has had meat from the start as we have been doing BLW, likes nothing better than a bit of steak!
HV not concerned as his weight gain has been steady, he is not very mobile yet so not sure when the weight gain will tail off...
I'm 5ft and his head is about as big as mine! Get some funny looks sometimes

DD was not much smaller at that age, exBF to 6m and the a bit of rice before BLW the rest of the way. She was eating slices of roast chicken by 9m. Yes she gagged if she put too much in but that just helped her learn self control

DD is tall though and has always been in proportion to her height which is what to look for imo.

I think if you knew she was feeding chocolate and biscuits rather than meals you should be more concerned tbh. It is hard to tell though without knowing the LO and her Mum myself.
