Does anyone else have a really big baby?

My little guy was 19 1/2 pounds and 27 inches at 4 months and is continuing to grow fast. He isn't quite 5 months old and is wearing 12 months clothes. He is nearly but not quite exclusively breast fed. He is healthy, just very large. Everywhere I go I get comments on how big he is. Most are nice but some not so much. If you also have a really big baby, please tell me about your little one so I know we're not alone.

    Yep, I have two. My son was 10 lbs at birth so was always in the 98th-99th centile range. He was never in newborn clothes and was always in the clothes size that was for a kid one or two months older than him. Now he's just turned two but everyone presumes he's a lot older. He's extremely tall though, well over three foot. No longer "big" however, his BMI is normal, he's turned slim now.

    Nine month old daughter 9 lbs 6 oz at birth, always 95th-96th centile. She's not as tall as our son but is chunkier which I think is a girl/boy difference more than anything. Everyone thinks she's older too. When we used to tell people our son was whatever age they always said "WHAT? NO WAY!" and whenever we see 3 year old's some of them are a lot smaller than our son, we've even seen a couple of four year old's smaller. Daughter looks more like the one year old's we see.

    Our baby girl was 25 pounds at 6 months lol. She's not fat or even chubby at all. Just tall and proportionate. She's 8 months now so idk hoe much she weighs but I bet it's 30+ pounds lol. She's wearing some 12 month shirts and 18 month shirts and pants. Her legs are looooong. Her estimated height is 5'11 like me, I'm tall and my hubby isn't. But we're both slim so is she.

    My son was 10lb at birth and he's now 18 months old and people think he's 3! When he doesn't hold a full blown conversation with a stranger they think he's "behind" until i tell them his actual age.
