My 7 month old baby girl weighs 2 stone 5 is this normal

[Lozobham23]

My baby girls weighs 2 stone 6 ,she is in 2-3 clothes ,I worried to death there is so think wrong ,everyone that sees her are shocked that she only 7 months old help ladies ????????????

I think it's your scales - I can't imagine she's gained 12 pounds in 2 months. I would see what your HV says and go from there.

Incidentally, is she still in an infant carrier style car seat?

So in 8 weeks she's put on almost a stone. Either you're talking bollocks or you've just put her on normal household scales which are not accurate below three stone.

If you are real then take her to your clinic. Not sure why you posted to be honest - you said you knew it wasn't normal.

I'm afraid it's the truth ,this is why I'm so deeply worried

How did you determine her weight, Lozo? Is it possible the numbers have gone wrong, and shes 1st 7?

Then take her to the clinic ffs. Not a lot anyone here can do.

Welcome to MN OP.

So your 7 month old baby has increased her weight by 13lbs in 2 months and you've not had any idea that she might be gaining weight a little too fast. No idea that her clothes are getting a tiny bit tight?

Hmmmm.

Er, how did you weigh her? That is what, 14 kg ish?

No I'm not talking foul language ,I'm actually asking for some advice,I thought that's what this sight was here for

The advice is take her to the clinic. Perhaps you could do that tomorrow.

She has been to the doctors actually in the last couple of weeks and for a unrelated matter and the doctors

I can not there is no health clinic it is only home visits

I am guessing not UK then? Take her to the doctor.

Does she "look" big ? What did the doctor say when he saw her? Can you take her somewhere else to get weighed ? Boots ?

No I'm afraid not I'm weighed her at home and on two friends scales

Were you leaning on the scales at the time?

What was she wearing?

Cast iron dungarees?

How did you weigh here - were you holding her on the scales?

This is impossible, unless you've been feeding her like a foie gras goose since April. Get her weighed by someone who knows what they're doing.

Yes Iam in the UK I'm not some overweight mother I'm a size 10 I regularly exercise and my kids eat healthy apart from weekends my son might have a McDonald's , the doctor said she is healthy he never weighed her,because I was not that concerned about her weight I just thought she's a chubby baby

"The last time I seen my hv was April due to refurbished centre she was 21 lbs"

"there is no health clinic it is only home visits"

Well which is it? Are you a little forgetful or would you like to change names with me?

It's the truth ,shame on you people were talking about a child 3 sets of scales r not wrong,

Seriously, if she had put on that much weight do you not think you would have noticed. Does she look vastly different? If you are so concerned, do not ask on a forum if this is normal when anyone with an ounce of common sense will tell you it's not. Did you lose the ability to think when she was born. I know I'm not allowed to say the T word.

So, you are right about the weight and you are sure. What do you want us to say other than 'take her to the doctor '?

Yes, and a seven month old doesn't weigh two stone. I'm pretty sure you would have noticed if she had inflated by that much.

Yes it is home visits they have only just contacted me with a letter to do the 8 month check
