 Did he drop much in the couple of weeks after birth? If he did he obviously needs to regain that weight before he can make any actual gain. Which line is he on for length - ie is he proportioned?flybabybunting wrote: »My son was 6lb 3 at birth and now ways 10lb 11 at 16weeks.The birds of sadness may fly overhead but don't let them nest in your hair0
