is there such thing as an overweight baby?

My daughter was 8.9 when she was born.. by the time she was 2 1/3 months she was 14.4 I dont know how much she weights now she is 3 1/2 but my sister in laws baby is one and some months and he weight 24lb.. a lot of people tell me she is or was overweight but I mean she was born big.. I dont think she is.. she's perfectly chunky to me :)

Your baby is perfectly fine. My little boy was the same way when he was a baby. He's 3 years old now and weighs 36lbs. Doctor said he is ideal weight for his age. As your baby grows her weight will balance out

Nope i dont think over weight but more so really healthy baby.  This girl at work honestly had a 11 lb 16 oz baby boy.  All people and babies are different
