Asking For Someone Else, Female, 8 months years old, Rawalpindi
My daughter is 8 months old n 10 kg. I got thyroid (hypo) 5 months ago. Is she okay to be 10 kg? I got her thyroid tests in May, which were normal. Is thyroid and weight are related? Kindly reply
1- what was her weight at birth ? How much weight is she gaining every month? What is her height? There can be several other hormonal causes of rapid weight gain.
2-TSH is usually high at birth, I like to know what was her TSH and free T4
She should be seen by local pediatrician first if needed should be referred to pediatric endocrinology
Its better to consult a pediatrician for this querry

Where as Dr. Awais Masood has already asked you the questions. I think we would be better off if you send us a picture. There are several other factors such as her length, parental height, your diabetes status during pregnancy, etc. Babies continue to grow rapidly during these months. A typical eight-month-old boy can weigh between 15.5 and 22 pounds (8 to 10 kg). Girls tend to weigh half a pound less.
