To me, it doesn't sound like he gets enough carbs (rice cereal or oatmeal). Devin eats about 9tbsp of carbs a day, whether it's pasta, rice, oatmeal, or rice cereal.

Have you met his birth parents or do you know anything about their height/weight? My cousin's 10month old baby is only in the 3rd percentile for both weight and height, but it's because of her genetic make-up (mom is 5'5 120lbs and dad is 5'5 115lbs).

Devin used to be VERY chubby...but once he started crawling and cruising he slimmed down. At his 9month appointment he was 21lbs 6oz (70th percentile) and 29"tall (80th percentile).

Here's Devin's schedule:
7:30am 3tbsp oatmeal with 5 tbsp apple sauce (or 1/2 baby french toast with 3tbsp apple sauce, or baby pancake with 3tbsp apple sauce) and 4oz watered down juice

10:30 7oz bottle

12:30 About 1/2cup of food (starch, veggies, and meat)...it's hard to say because he eats table food and/or finger foods with 2oz of water

2:30 Sometimes he has a small snack of 10 puffs or a Baby Mum Mum

3:30 8oz bottle

6:30 Again 1/2cup of food (starch, veggies, and meat) with 2oz water

8:30 8oz bottle
