I cant find the darn centile chart things but am in a bit of a panic that he`s underweight. Having had two girls who were always almost the other way - he just seems so fragile.Is 17 kgs (fully clothed with trainers ect. ) ok.Not sure how tall he is -prob slightly above average.
I think 17 kgs is about 2 1/2 stone btw ? x

He`s had one infection after another recently which has now ended up in him getting shingles and he looks really pale and too thin .
Off to buy a tonic tomorrow and prescription for lots of fruit veggies fresh air sleep and most of all cuddles .

Sounds fine to me, don't worry

My dd is 5 and she is just under 3 stone. She has always been above 'average' weight (followed the 91st and then dropped to around 75th although i've not looked for ages ...)

I would guess from that that your ds is slightly below 'average' but i really don't think its enough below 'average' to worry (maybe around 25th centile at a guess)

DS1 is 2st 4lb and nearly 5. He's on the 2nd centile for weight (ie. the penultimate line of dashes at the bottom of the chart). And he's on the 9th centile for height. So quite low but not desperately so.

If your DS1 is 17kg, that's just over 2.6st which puts him on the 25th, the one beneath average. So no worries. Even allowing for the weight of his trainers!
