Very overweight!!: At 13m old, a baby should be eating 3 meals, 2 snacks daily and drinking milk (500ml daily). The milk should be given only after they eat and in a sippy cup. A normal weight for a 13 m old is 8-12kg. 16.9 kg is extremely overweight for 13 months old. See your Dr for a thorough exam/lab tests, and proper nutrition for your baby. Childhood obesity can result in diabetes, high blood pressure, cancer
