Yea, twin boy was always on the smaller side, and is still only in the 2nd/9th centile, and he's super feisty. As long as they develop steadily and don't suddenly drop they will be fine :)

My eldest was iugr and weighed 5lbs, my 3rd was 6lbs 12oz and on the 10th centile, she's still a dinky thing now at 2.5yrs but she's fierce and meeting all her milestones

My baby was 6lb 4oz at birth, 5 weeks premature. He’s only just in 6-9m clothes (9 months old) but I know he’s healthy and he’s hitting all his milestones early 😌

my little girl was born at 37wks and weighed 4lbs 9oz, took a little while to gain the weight but she drunk more and more in her own time and she turns 2 next month, doing amazing and so healthy

Is this in pregnancy? If so; They told me my baby had stopped growing and was ‘small’ and pushed an induction and out popped my 9lb baby at 37 weeks. They aren’t always right!

I had IUGR with mine, induced at 37 weeks and he was 5lb 7oz, born on the 1st centile, he’s still on that centile being 6 months and weighing only 13lb 8oz but he’s doing amazing and hitting all his milestones! Scans aren’t always right in predicting baby’s weight either🫶

Yup my allegedly 7th centile baby came out 6 pounds 9 and at 6 weeks is now 10 pounds 2. I worried so much for nothing he’s too heavy for me now 😂
