6 of my MIL's 8 babies were total chubba-lubs, (it's only the very prem ones that weren't).  So much so that even strangers used to comment to her that her baby was incredibly "fat", and tell her that she was over-feeding them (WTF?!?  Thank god she told them all to get stuffed and that it was impossible to overfeed on breastmilk alone!).  And they have all turned out very healthy, and just to show the world, they all have the kind of metabolism that I am very jealous of!  Her biggest baby is now one of those women who could do with eating a couple more pies.  So in other words, I don't think that chubby baby = overweight adult, but I do think that carrying a bit of fat is really good for a baby's development.  Their little brains are growing so fast, and what do brains rely on to really make a go of it?  FAT!  Chubba-lub babies are just luscious. 

Andrew was the same Amber and now he is one skinny tall boy. i wouldn't worry, I got Josh weighed yesterday and he is 11kgs and only 9 months old I have a feeling that i'll probably have someting said to me too but I take it with a grain of salt and smile and nod but in fact really I don't care what they say. My dr says he is healthy and happy so i'm happy.

 Big hugs lv, I wouldnt care what she says. When My 12yr old was a baby my plunket nurse told me she was obese at 12mths  so I ended up at the doctors in tears thinking I was over feeding my baby. He said not to worry she was gaining well and just a big girl. She was 10lbs born and was always well covered. She is now a skinny bean pole and the funny thing is she was my chubbiest baby.

Your baby boy is just gorgeous
