Anya's put weight on quite well, but everyone comments on how tiny she is. Enrages me, but compare to my fulltermers she is petite, my other daughter was a milk monster and was Anya's weight at about 8weeks old. xx
My daughter was 18lbs at 12 months and a bit. She was born at 34/35 weeks. I say 34/35 weeks because there always seemed to be some confusion over when she was actually suppose to be due.
She was born at 5lbs and 13 oz but left the hospital at 5lbs and 8oz at 18 3/4 long.
She is only a couple of weeks away from being 6 and she is almost 45 inches tall and 40 lbs. She wear a size 6 now. For a long time it was difficult getting clothes to fit because she was always so small. She still hits her growth spurts later than most kids her age. She was potty trained by two but she had to wear size 3 diapers still because we couldn't find any training pants or underwear small enough. lol
My point is they make take more time, but they do get big eventually. I hope that assures some of you.
Evie is 1 in 11 days and she is 67.5cm long and at last weighin she was 7kg but has had severe chest infection so not really ate or drunk for 4 days so probably be a bit lighter.
Weight gain is one of the most stressful things when having a premmie.
