At what age did your baby hit 25 pounds?

If you're interested, here's the growth chart for girls 0-36 months from the CDC:

My dd didn't hit 25 lbs until age 2 1/2. Talk about tiny!

Baby #1 hit 25 pounds at about 8 months and baby #2 at 6 months. Who knows when baby #3 will! BUT, both my kids leveled off at around a year and maintained their weights for 3 months at a time. By the time DD was around 2-3 she was a skinny little one! DS has alkways been large (10 lb 2 oz at birth), up until around age 6 when he started sprouting in height and now is a thin one at 14. DD is 15 almost 16 and is 5'4" and around 116 pounds. You can never tell by what they weigh at birth or that first couple of years!

Between 18 and 20 months. He's been always around 40-50% percentile for weight, although 97% for height.

Between 18 & 24 months. He was 7 1/2 lbs at birth.

DD is just about 15lbs now at 5 mos. But I have a friend whose 4 mo old was 23 lbs. I wouldn't worry -- as soon as she starts crawling she will really burn those calories!

Hmmm... we go for our 2 year appointment in a few weeks and I am hoping DD is 23lbs!!!!!! At 18 months she was 20 lbs so I am hoping another 6 months will have helped her along. Although she was 7lbs, 5oz at birth, she has always been thin (3-5%). Her height at the last checkup was at 75%. So perhaps she will be a tall and thin girl - hard life, eh?

Karenna is 25 lbs just now (I think) since she was 24.5 lbs and 35" at her 2-year ped appt last month! She was 7# 1oz, 20 1/4" at birth, and has always been long and slender like her Dad -- 10th% for weight, 90th% height.

It'll be very interesting to see how her brother-to-be compares to her as he grows!

DD was born 4 days after yours...at 6 lb 4 oz 19 inches. She's about 15 lb now, and 24-25 inches. I'm having a hard time predicting what clothing size she will be for our very short FL winter, and what she will be wearing at 1 yr!
