Not growing

[kb2yjx]

Our Hope Simone is nearly 7 months old, and is probably about the size of a 12 week old kitten!!! Like several have posted, perhaps your baby, like Hope Simone, will just be petite. I call Hope Simone my " forever kitten." Just give lots of LOVE!!!

Thanks for everyone's advice. It actually seems like she has grown a bit this week. She has also discovered a new skill, she can jump on on very tall things now. She seems impressed with this discovery.

If she's acting like a kitten, I wouldn't worry. My punks from hard circumstances--starvation, disease, disability, etc.--seem to stay a lot smaller than a sib from a healthier beginning. Since your baby was a homeless child, she might've had stuff in her background that doesn't show now. Sassy, who's mom had 6 babies with mastitis, hemobartonella, etc. is a sole survivor and is quite healthy at 4 pounds full-grown.
