Someone said my girl would have to be put on a diet⌠at 8 months old 
I went off 
donât start that type of shit with her so young. Her pediatrician says they love chunky babes, and they thin out a bit when they start being mobile with crawling and walking.
Oh my baby was rolley polley, when people made comments I would just say âI know!! I love all her little rolls! Fat babies are my favourite!â

My baby is 4 months old and 15.7 bls but sheâs also 2ft 1in tall
Think of it this way, you KNOW your child isnât obese or overweight. You know that they mean no harm. ENJOY the cute chubby baby comments. Some mommaâs are DESPERATE to see a baby fat roll on their babies. Lots of mommas get sick of hearing âHe/She is so little! Theyâre so tiny!â Etc. I say the same to them, just let it go. Itâs not anything to get worked up about. If your baby is chunky, chubby, tiny, or thin they just are. Itâs ok!

They literally melt the weight off when they start crawling and walking. My baby is now an almost 15 month old and she was a bit chubby at 6 months. Now she is a lean little trex. They go through so many fluctuations. Let it roll off your back and just enjoy the ride.

Get her a onsie that says "Iâm chubby & I know it! Or one that says âI brought the rollsâ and have her wear it to a family gathering. Chubby babies are the cutest! Sure it might be annoying but just learn to make light of it!

Chubby is beautiful in babies. They are healthy. Their brains need fat to develop. Just tell them to fuck off.

People are always going to comment on the size of your child.
My son was 28lb since he was about 9mo. 90% breastfed and didnt really get into table foods until he was about 1.5 maybe the later side of being closer to 2. He didnt drink milk either.
I would get the âwhat are you feeding himâ
And someone actually told me he was getting âbreastmilk on steroidsâ
My best advice to give you is: ignore them.

Honey you should have seen my little girl. She was beyond chubby. She was a butterball.lol Everyone would say the same stuff to me. I let it go because I knew they werenât being mean and she really was. Lol. Now she is a beautiful 14 year old. Oh and either the chunky babies be sure to check them creases. My sister was holding Skylar after a bath one day and she had a piece of hair hanging off her foot so I went to pull it and looked up and it was actually wrapped around her her toe so tight that when we got to ER they were talking about cutting off her toe if we couldnât get circulation back to toe. Thank god after a good little while and trying to hold her foot in ice water the color came back. So please everyone be sure to check all those creases. I know ai completely got off track with my response but thinking about her chunky butt made me remember and I would hate for someone else to have to go through that.
My chunka bug when she was bornđ I wanted a chubby baby and couldnât get over her little rolls and her sweet smoosh face! Sheâs 4 now and still a bit of a chunk and still has the same smoosh face when she sleeps that Iâm guilty of stealing kisses fromâ¤

I love chunky Monkies. ( as I call them) My 1st had really thick thighs. They were so stinking cute. My second was a twig. 
We called her our skinny mini. Lol.
Both my kids are now twigs
They are just genetically thin. ( like i USED to be 
)

Fat baby is a good thing. A fat baby is a healthy baby and means you are taking good care of the baby. You getting defensive is more concerning.

Dont let it get to you. My lil one is chunky as well in all honesty I take it as a great compliment considering she was breastfed exclusively. (My first I had to supplement) my girls are 18 months apart and my youngest who is 6 months is half of not a little over half of what her older sister weighs. But shes healthy and happy. If these people continue to make these comments as your little one gets older def say something to them tho. Along with my lil one I call her my lil chunk but that will stop as well very soon since she is getting older. I want both my daughters to grow up having great self esteem and knowing they are always beautiful

I highly doubt anyone means it in a mean or degrading manor considering chubby/fat babies are literally the CUTEST of them all, you just need to relax and consider it more of a compliment
Who cares.
Most babies are chubby
Its cute! Baby will slow down soon
Just came here for the adorable chunk babies! I finally got my chunk baby, my first was tiny, skinny (healthy) but she didnât have them rolls for days, my son is 5 months and I just eat them rolls up! So stinking cute!!
My son had some lil titties I loved when people would call him chubby.
This is my 6 months old daughter. Everyone calls her a chunky girl. I love it though because she really is my chunksterâ:heart:

Let it go, they are supposed to be chubby at this age and it is cute so yes people are going to notice and yes they are going to say she is chubby but you shouldnât get all upset just because people are stating a fact. Enjoy and stop being butt hurt over something this small. If this upsets you then youâre not going to be able to handle the real problems when they come up.

Iâd be looking at all their fat and shit and being like oh look. Magine shaming a babies bodiy
I get itâs hard my son has his hand missing to amniotic band syndrome. I every now and then get defensive when people ask whatâs wrong with him because absolutely nothing is wrong. I am sure your baby will grow out of the baby wrinkles and be perfectly healthy.
Chubby babies are a good thing. As they grow theyâll stretch out. I think the problem here is that you think âchubbyâ is an insult, which is something youâll have to evaluate in yourself.
Itâs generally a complement in babies. I had two chunkers and they both leaned out. I used to call my son things like Mr. Chunkers and Sir Chubby Cheeks and always called my daughter my little hippo.

They dont mean any harm. Everyone LOVES babies. Some of them are super annoying at âteenyâ babies just like with chunky babies. My girl is 26 pounds at a year and a half but is really tall. Everyone was always aww shes so tiny and then they found out she was in 3-6 month clothes at a month and a half. Even now you canât see her rolls unless sheâs in just a diaper or at least shorts.
My daughter looked like the Michelin tire man till about a year old, so ignore your family. If your pediatrician isnât concerned then neither should you be, babies are supposed to fat

My son was chubby when he was a baby and then as he started walking, he got rid of some of the baby fat and was a normal sized toddler.
Most babies are chubby, donât take offence its normal x
Dina Gabriel lol post Nallys picture. Chubby babies are cutest, I always have little skinny bird babies
My son had so many rolls when he was a baby we called him the Michelin Man from the tire commercials.
Donât take it personal. Chubby babies are the absolute cutest. Itâs just something about those rolls. You want to hug them, kiss them, squeeze them, etc. I mean if she was a skinny baby, no one would even look her way 
Just try and ignore it. I know itâs hard. My daughter was the same. My little chunk. Shes now a toddler and like a beanpole.
For babies, being fat and chunby is a compliment⌠not an insult.

Iâd come back at them like âYouâre a piece of shit for fat shaming a BABYâ and never talk to them again.
Under a year old I wouldnât worry about it. When they get old enough to understand, 2 or more, Iâd address it with empathy. Hey we donât want to give her body image issues when sheâs older, can we pick a different nickname? I understand now if youâve struggled with that it can be harder for you to hear and other people donât understand why it upsets you. So go easy on them, but you donât have to allow that if you feel itâs not ok later.
My son was 10lbs 3oz when he was born, he was chunky. He was 20lbs by the time he was 5 months. He thinned out A LOT after he started moving around, but there is nothing wrong with it. I understand you dont like when other people call your baby chunky, but itâs honestly not a bad thing. Maybe just take a few seconds to remind yourself their comments donât matter then ask them nicely to not use those words. But I still call my son my little chunky butt. Chunky babies are happy babies!!

I love seeing all the chubby cuties!!!
Chubby babies are the best. Leave it be. They probably mean it in a cute way, not a stop feeding her so much way.
My 6m old is 22 pounds 
My 3 babies were all huge and chubby and had rolls everywhere⌠It also bothered me how rude people can be calling them fat or even telling me donât over feed her! (I was not overfeeding them) but once they started crawling and walking and eating other foods besides breast milk they all lost the extra weight.
My advice is. Donât worry⌠Ignore them⌠As long as Doctor says he is healthy what other people think is not important
Just come back with âI know, right! Isnât she adorable!â And laugh at it. Iâm the same way, with lil babes and animals! Lol i love the cute chubbiness!
I know someone who had a premature baby & the child was extremely thin until he was 12 years old. He looked so sick. She was so upset all the time about it. Knowing her, and how she wished for those exact words, and knowing how âchunkyâ my kids were, I think itâs meant to be cute. Like âwow, look at how perfect and healthy your chunky cherub of cuteness is!!â In my family we literally say âI want to eat you up!â And itâs meant with 100% love.
My nephew is the chubbiest baby Iâve ever seen and so darn cute! I mean so freaking cute. Maybe even more cute than my other not-so-chubby nephews. But his father (my brother) was also super chubby and he turned out to be the tallest member of the family. So, when people say your baby is chubby just say thank you, my baby is gonna be so tall!
I had 3 babies and all were breastfed⌠Lucky all the family adored fat babies⌠And they were quite chubby⌠Donât feel offended mamma. They are ur beautiful creation and THE ONE ABOVES⌠Take it as a compliment and say thank you. My Littles are now 10, 6 and 4 and they are slender. Breast milk just âevaporatesâ and they are perfect. Donât stress the small things. Itâs just gorgeous to have this small thing to hug tightly and adore.
Believe me most babies lose the chunky when they get mobile.

Every baby is different my youngest is a chunky girl as well she will be 1 next week and about 25lbs she wears size 18-24 months but she was a tiny girl at birth only 4lb 13oz she had iugr (intrauterine growth retardation) I feel like the smaller my babies were at birth the chunkier they were as toddlers
Chonky baby is a good baby
Chunky is one thing. Calling a baby fat is another. I would say something about calling her fat. Chunky babies are cute! It will come off once she starts moving. If it was at an unhealthy point your doctor would talk to you about it. My son is 10 months & is 22-23lbs while his 3 year old sister is 28lbs. Neither one are unhealthy. My girl has always been on the smaller side though.
My son was a chubby baby and thank goodness he was, he got pnumonia at 4 months and was in the hospital, very sick, the Dr said it was a good thing he was chubby, we may have lost him if he wasnât.
I think the people who are calling her that Know that it is harmful.
Oh Iâm sorry my earlier comment about them knowing that itâs mean was wrong because I thought You said an eight year old, totally different
People said the same about two of mine at that sort of age. They were breast fed- soon slimmed down when they were moving more.
Chubby babies are adorable! You cannot pass one by without fondly commenting. Donât worry, they will outgrow the chubbiness!
She will slim down once she starts walking. Dont worry about it now
My daughter was 7lbs at birth and put of nowhere she just blew up! Everyone calls her chubby baby I mean, who doesnt like chubby, squishy, fat babies
