parker just ate a waffle and a fourth for breakfast. where the heck is he PUTTING all this table food? I've never seen an 8 month old eat the way he does, and he's not fat! He's like in the 60th percentile.
I give the kids those eggo waffles for bfast that are broken into four mini waffles and he ate 5 of them. he's like the baby that ate cincinnati. :blink:

That's so funny! My 2 year old is in the 5th percentile and eats adult portions - it's crazy!

 

[ColleenSwerb]

LMAO @ the baby that ate cincinnati! LOL!

 

[Jennifer]

I often wonder the same thing around here! LOL!

Avalynne is the same Lena! She was in the 5th percentile for pretty much the first year of her life, and yet could eat almost as big a portion as me! She could eat a banana, some cereal, an 8 oz bottle and more (if I kept feeding her). It was insane.

She's only 13 months, still eats this way, and at her 1 year checkup, we found thats she's now in the 25th percentile. She out eats my nephews and neices who are 2.5, and 5, lol!

My youngest has always been like that too! Except he was in the 30th percentile...and still ate like a horse.

 

[pbumbaca]

Ah, High Metablism, I wish I had one!

Mason's been like that. But now I have the opposite problem. At the last wellness checkup thingie, I was told he's WAY above the 100th percentile for weight, but I tried telling them he's NOT fat. He's always been in the 75th percentile...he's a stocky heavy kid but there's no fat on him. He eats the same as an adult (or more - usually 2x what I eat) and if we let him would keep right on going. He's 6, though. LOL!

When my son was like 10 months he once ate an entire cheeseburger. It shocked me. lol

 

[rachelv]

yep, same with mine! prob here, is mine is already picky (10 mos)

 

[Paula]

That is too cute! I bet he loved it.

 

[lizzyfizzy]

give him some beef jerky for lunch and call it a day.

 

[scrappychic]

That's how Chey is....she's hungry all the time but eats smaller portions throughout the day. She's only like 25th percentile in weight and 75th in height. Hope her metabolism stays high or she better slow down when she's older.

 

[AnnieBananie]

DD is 99th percentile for height and I don't pay attention to weight so I dunno... she's proportional though... but she's ALWAYS eaten like a flim-flammin' horse.

I remember a time when she was first doing well with table foods that she ate *4* scrambled eggs, a slice or two of bacon, and 2 pieces of toast... I was like "Doooood, wth!?"
