My first son was 7 pounds 10 ounces at birth and was 16 pounds 8 ounces at  2 
months.  He was 32 pounds at one year.  Didn't start eating solids  
consistently until he was 18 mos old.  My ped didn't worry because he was  also long.  
He is now 4 yrs old and weighs 55 pounds and is over 4 feet  tall.  People 
guess he is 6 or 7 yrs old.  Very healthy and  happy.  Breastfed until he was 2 
years old.  Some babies are  big.  Everyone said he would be late on 
development but he sat up at 4 mos,  crawled at 5.5 mos and walked at 9 mos.  He did not 
slow down in weight  gain when he started walking or running.  My second is 
now 2.5 years and  weighs 28 pounds on a good day.  Fed exactly the same way.  
Wears the  clothes my first son wore at 6 mos old.
