my second child was a very, very chubby baby. His weight came from breast feeding, nothing else. When he stopped breast feeding at a year old, his weight went back down. He is now a very tall, lanky 16 year old boy.

My daughters were breastfed but were thin as babies.

I have no idea why my son was a chubby baby but he was.

By the way, he was much heavier as a baby then the one in the photo.

Deb1, you must not have been making breastmilk, you must have been making breastcream when your son was a baby.

As far as the story goes...

I can relate. When my son was 4 months old he was 16 pounds! Chubby yes! His ped. was NOT at all concerned. He said he was happy to see a chubby baby thriving on breast milk alone!
I think the mom is petite in the pic! The baby looks huge. He is really large but I think the pic makes him look uber huge.

And you know that if it was a politician's child this baby would be covered by insurance... I'm just sayin!

A little true story- A couple years ago the power company was working on the lines outside my house and caused a huge power surge. The power surge literally blew up an old computer we had. No other appliances were damaged because we had unplugged everything that wasn't on a surge protector, but we forgot this one computer so it was ruined and almost started a fire, as well. We filed a claim with our insurance company of 12 years and were compensated for our loss. The insurance company, in turn, filed a claim with the power company and were compensated for their loss. All is well. A year later my house was struck by lightning. I called the insurance company to let them know they would be seeing some claims, but then the damages done were less than my deductible, so I didn't end up filing any claims. I told insurance company that there will be no claims. All is well... or not. The insurance company calls me a few months later and has canceled my homeowners' policy because of too many claims. After 12 years of doing business with them they cancel my policy because of a claim they got reimbursed for and a non-existent claim. I should say after 12 years of taking money from me and me getting nothing in return.

Insurance companies are legalized theft.

Wow- I would have been denied coverage for all of my kids! I'm 6ft and my husband is 6'5"- all of the kids are huge. Not fat at all- just off the charts because those charts were made decades ago when people were smaller.

CMV- similar thing happened to us. House almost blew up because builder never converted the furnace to propane from natural gas. We had so much damage from condensation (propane burns way hotter than natural gas), and Allstate basically said" sorry you're SOL!"
