We are not large people. We try to eat mostly healthy. My husband weighs as much as he did in high school, which wasn't much. Today at Ohana's 1 year well baby check, she was off the scale for her weight. At a mere 15lb 11oz our girl needs more fat! She is 24% for height and 6% for her head circumference. So here are some of the things we are to try... heavy whipping cream in her already full-fat milk, scrambled egg yolks with mayo, adding sour cream or cream cheese to foods, maybe some coconut oil in her oatmeal... and I won't bore with the rest. Our girl loves to eat so that is not the issue. She just has good genes and will hopefully thank us in her teen and early 20's! She is healthy and perfect in every way!

well u r right...she'll b thankful for those genes when she's older. still can't believe that C weighs more than Ohana! C was 16#9oz last week at 5.5 months old.
Alice is tiny, too. She's at 17 pounds...at the end of the day, with a wet cloth diaper on. :)
I'm trying to fatten her up, too. Avocados, cheese, peanut butter, coconut oil and butter, egg yolks, full fat yogurt...nothing seems to be working. I think she's just destined to be small. Like you said, they'll be thankful for it when they're in their 20's. :)
