lol yes he has a name.... so many people call my son FAT or a variation of fat (chubby, large, big, fluffy...) and i heard that a us health insurance company would deny a baby his age and weight medical coverage because he would be determined "Obese"
so I wonder.... what would the general public say
My 11 month old grandson weighs that! I wouldn't call him anything but I'd wonder if you feed him all day long.
I'd call him normal because my girls were close to that when they were babies, lol! They were both over 9lbs at birth, though.
IMO people are overly sensitive about this. I mean, I have a friend whose son is 1 year younger than my son and weighed more at 6 months than my son did at 18 months. We talk about how he's a big boy but there's nothing WRONG with him being a big boy, it's just the way he is. Just like how my son is tiny! And a lot of people like chubby babies. I don't think most people mean it in a bad way.
