Hi,
Although I know the answer already, I'd like to hear from your expierence regarding growth - lenghts in babies.

My 5 months old son was born on the 25th, is now on the 9th and hasn't grown at all in the last 4 weeks and will now drop another percentile.

There are growth spurts and delays - what is your expierence, did your DC have break for a few weeks or months before growing again and catching up?

Thanks, Thali

I wouldn't worry, a lot of areas they don't measure height as standard anymore for babies anyway but the growth certainly comes in spurts
