Mommies! Sino dito pinanganak ang baby at lower percentile or medyo underweight?

Parents! Sino dito ang nag give birth sa kanilang baby na full term and their baby now still at the lower percentile, did your baby turned out fine when they grow up? My 4 months old is only 6.3kg and 60cm and its small for his age and im very worried. He used to be 6.6kg but got sick and lost weight. He looks small physically. Sometimes i cant help but to compare him with other babies esp those in his ifc and same age. Altho i know we should not compare our baby. Can i just know how much your baby weight and their height at 4 months?

Within normal range naman po ang weight ni baby nyo. No need to worry kung hindi naman sakitin and no other symptoms. Si lo ko, 2.4kg nung ipinanganak ko, by 4.5 months, 7kg lang sya, exclusively breastfed. Even now at 3yo, 13kg lang sya at medyo maliit compared to his peers. Pero never magworry ang pedia ko about it, and nakikita ko rin namang kahit nasa lower percentile sya ay very healthy and active rin naman si lo, malakas kumain at bihira ang junk foods and sweets. Ang sabi nga rin ng pedia, ang pagiging mataba o matangkad ni baby ay depende rin sa genes ng parents. So kung may side na medyo payat/ maliit, possible na dun nakuha ni lo โ˜บ๏ธ Also, remember na mataba does not necessarily mean healthy. Sa adults nga we even see it as unhealthy, pero sa babies it's seen as "cute" kasi ๐Ÿ˜… National Nutrition Council weight chart boys: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://nnc.gov.ph/downloads/category/34-who-cgs-reference-table-0-71-mos%3Fdownload%3D61:weight-for-age-reference-table-boys&ved=2ahUKEwixxNWJu8CDAxVia2wGHeqqCZYQFnoECBkQAQ&usg=AOvVaw3fQMP2jvJXLYr3oyS7PsGg

pinanganak ko si baby na normal weight pero on the lower side. however, ung monthly monitoring ng weight ay hindi na-aattain ni baby ang expected weight pero normal ang height. kaya no worries daw, as per pedia. sabi ni pedia, kulang sa calories ang breastmilk ko. kaya we decided na i-mixed feed si baby. unti-unting lumalapit ang weight ni baby sa expected. until nung nagstart sia mag-solid food, dun humabol ang weight nia sa expected.

Pinanganak ko si baby na 2.37 lang ang weight. Bumagal pa yung weight gain nya kasi pinush ko mag ebf, yun pala mahina yung milk ko. Nung 7 weeks ni LO, 3 kilos pa lang sya. Dun ako pinush ng pedia na mix feeding na kasi need namin maghabol ng weight. Sa 4 months ni LO, 5 kg lang ata sya ๐Ÿ˜… pero after non 1 kg dinadagdag nya every month. Currently 1 year turning 2 months, 12 kg na si LO. Nasobrahan ng gana kumaen, ambigat ๐Ÿ˜‚
