My guess was 18 pounds. He had gained 4-1/2 pounds in his first 2 months (to 14 lbs, 1 oz) so I thought for sure he'd gain that much more. Well, the numbers are in...
Height: 26" (75-85%)
Weight: 16 lbs, 10 oz. (75%)
Head: 44-1/2 cm (>98%)
He is losing momentum with his weight gain! Though his head growth is still full-force. :) He is really healthy overall! (Thank you, Lord!) He does seem to have excema on his face, so we're treating that with vaseline/Aquaphor. We were given the go-ahead to start solids. He got 2 shots and an oral vaccine. Poor little guy has been inconsolable tonight, with a not-quite-a-fever-but-higher-than-normal temp. Hopefully he'll wake up happier tomorrow.
OK, time for the comparison. At 4 months:
Sydney was-
Height: 24"
Weight: 13 pounds, 11 oz.
Taylor was-
Height: 25 1/2" (90%)
Weight: 17 lbs, 5 oz. (>95%)
Head: 43 cm. (90%)
Funny how Sydney has turned out the be the "runt" of the family. It'll be interesting to see how big and tall they get to be as adults.
