This babe sounds like my boys!  All three of them started out petite...and
continue to be so!  If a baby is fed when he/she is hungry (nutritionally
sound food)...then they will grow at their own pace!  In addition genetics
have to be accounted  for (both my hubby and me tend to be more of the
petite nature) and the growth charts need to be taken into consideration!

 The baby weighed 6lb 7 oz at birth, was  14 lbs at 6 months and
> at 9 months is 15lbs. The baby has gone from the 25th percentile to the
5th.
