Okay here are the stats for the boys - boring, I know, especially if you aren't their mother but I'm posting them anyway.
Isaac:
Weight - 16 lbs 7 oz
Height - 28"
Head - 45 cm
Asher:
Weight - 18 lbs 11 oz
Height - 29"
Head - 46 cm
Isaac is only in the 1.5 percentile for weight. Almost 99% of babies his age are bigger than he is. At 6 months he was in the 7th percentile and I thought that was low. For now, per the doctor's suggestion, we are adding more formula powder to his bottles and adding a scoop into the baby food at each meal.
As for Asher, I alway thought he was huge since he is much bigger than Isaac. He is closing in on a 2 lb difference. But compared to other babies his age he is only in the 15th percentile. I am concerned that he still isn't crawling, or even near to it. Maybe he'll just get up and start walking one day. The doctor noticed he leans his head to the right, something I never noticed. So now we are doing exercises several times a day to try and correct that.
Even though I am concerned about their weight I'm glad that I have two happy healthy babies. They even liked their new doctor, I sat Asher on the floor and when the doctor came in he immediately started waving his arms in his "please pick me up" kind of way.
