Toddlers weight

My 2.5 year old weighs 12.9kgs. At his last health check which was 6mths ago he was 12.6kgs - what I'm wondering is that normal weight to gain??? Or is he not growing??
He is very active and has shot up in height a bit.
Thank you

Normal. They stretch and change shape.

I find with my kids that they tend to go outwards and then they shoot upwards. Their appetites change accordingly

12.5 is average for 2.5. My kids were waaaaay over this at that age but they're skinny little muscley things now. Just feed well and don't stress

Have you got a weight chart in your baby book? Is he tracking along the same percentile? If he’s still tracking along the same line there’s nothing to worry about. If there is a big change in percentile then definitely get him checked by your gp or child health nurse.
