Jake was on the 70th at 24 weeks and the 3rd at 34 weeks but the time he was born at 38 weeks he was on the 15th and has pretty much stayed there ever after....

So far (and early days lol) this one is spot on for dates so 50th percantile (which Jake was at this point too).

My oldest who is just about to turn 3 was born on the 3rd percentile and has grown along that line roughly as well, he went up then down then back up with his height and his weight increased slightly to around the 10th.
My youngest who is 16 months was born on and has tracked along the 50th for everything. He is almost as big as his brother, only about 1kg between them and not much difference in height either.

I have no idea what percentiles mine were on when pregnant, I don't remember ever being told.

Isla was always sitting well above the 97th percentile (was 11lb 80z at birth!) and is now cruising along the 97th percentile line so she is still big, just not massively big like she used to be. is on the 97th percentile for height and above that for head circ.

Lily was on the 50th %ile at 34 weeks pregnant, and was 49th at birth and in the 16 weeks post she has gone from the 49th to the 60th%ile and is still going up and up... (weight wise), her height is 49th%ile from birth to now - no change.
Her head is below the 50th%ile though which is funny because she outgrows clothes due to her head being too big

But she is gaining weight well and doubled birth weight by 11 weeks old.

Oh uhh she was 6lbs 13oz born at 39 weeks because waters broke but dp and I were both tiny babies (he was 7 and a half lbs and I was 6lbs 11oz) so we weren't expecting a baby bigger than 7lbs!

Her dad is a big guy, 6ft 2 and 140ish kg, I'm only 5 ft 2 and 54kgs but her Plunket book looks exactly like mine rather than DPs so we think she'll take after me...
