My chunky baby is on the 99th percentile, people question how I survived birth & are convinced I feed him protein shakes
A MUM has taken the internet by storm after showing off her 99 percentile child.
Houri, a teacher from the US, took to social media to show off her chunky baby, admitting she thought his size was a problem at first.
In the clip, the mum picked up her baby and hid him from the camera as the audio said: “I think Moto Moto likes you.
“I like them big, I like them chunky.”
She then showed off her son and said: “Here’s my 99 percentile 6-month-old.”
The term is used by doctors to measure your babies weight against others.
If your child is in the 99th percentile it means that your child weighs more than 99 percent of kids their age.
And when her ‘chunky’ boy came on to the screen it was no surprise to anyone.
The adorable baby was almost half the height of his mum already and his adorable chubby cheeks became the centre of attention.
However, the mum admitted she was concerned by his size when he started putting on weight.
Taking to the comments, she wrote: “I’ve never had a chunky baby, so I have expressed my concerns to the doctor.”
Thankfully, everything is good, they keep reassuring me.”
She also added that her son was tiny when he was younger and had put on weight outside of the womb.
“He was tiny when he was younger,” she said.
The clip quickly went viral on her TikTok account @hourihy with over 12 million views and 1.7million likes.
